9.5		Additional benefits associated with the Employee’s employment, if any, will be set out in the Employee’s Offer Letter.
10.		HOLIDAY ENTITLEMENT
10.1		In addition to the Public holidays normally applicable in England, the Employee is also entitled to 25 working days’ paid holiday in each complete calendar year providing that you work five days a week. This basic entitlement includes three days’ paid holidays on dates to be determined by the Company, although typically these will be for the period between Boxing Day and New Year’s Day.
10.2		This entitlement increases to 28 days per calendar year after three full year’s service, and is pro-rated for the period from the completion of the three years full service to the end of that holiday/calendar year.
10.3		Employees are also allowed to ‘buy and sell’ holidays up to a maximum of 5 days leave per annum. You will be advised of the programme each December for the following holiday year, when you will be expected to make your decision about opting to buy or sell holiday for the following year. This buying and selling will only be allowed at this time in December.
10.4		Employees who work part-time will have their holiday entitlement pro-rated according to the hours that they work.
10.5		The Company’s holiday year is from 1st January to 31st December.
10.6		All holidays paid and unpaid must be previously agreed in writing with the Employee’s Manager, giving reasonable notice in writing and will be subject to the business needs of the Company. Not more than two weeks may be taken at any one time, save at the Company’s discretion.
10.7		At the start and termination of the Employee’s employment with the Company, the Employee’s holiday entitlement will be calculated on a pro-rata basis for each complete month the Employee has worked for the Company during the relevant holiday year based on one-twelfth of the annual entitlement. Your entitlement to holiday pay will accrue ratably throughout the year.
10.8		If, on the termination of the Employee’s employment the Employee has exceeded their accrued holiday entitlement, this excess will be deducted from the Employee’s final salary or any other sums due to the Employee. If the Employee has holiday entitlement still owing, the Company may pay the Employee a sum in lieu of accrued holiday (less all applicable taxes and NI). For the avoidance of doubt, one day’s holiday will be calculated on the basis of 1/260th of your salary.
10.9		Holiday entitlement for one year should be taken in the same holiday year. Failure to do so will result in forfeiture of any such accrued holiday not taken. However if this has not been possible because of mutually agreed business requirements, subject to their Manager’s discretion, 5 days holiday entitlement can be carried over into January or February of the next year. Any unused holiday entitlement after this period will be lost. No payment in lieu of any untaken holiday will be made.

11.		ABSENCE, SICKNESS AND SICK PAY

11.2		The Employee must continue to keep the Company informed on a daily basis for the first 5 working days of absence.
11.3		A Self Certification Form must be submitted to cover the whole of the absence period, even if it is just one day, in addition to a Medical Certificate where appropriate. Entitlement to payment is subject to notification of absence and production of medical certificates as required above.
11.4		If the Employee’s absence from work lasts for more than 7 consecutive days (including Saturday and Sunday), the Employee must submit a medical certificate (signed by a Doctor) to the Company. Medical certificates should be submitted to the Company to cover the full period of the Employee absence from the 7th consecutive day of illness. When a medical certificate expires, the Employee should notify the Company on the first morning following expiry if he/she does not intend to return to work.
11.5		Subject to the Employee’s compliance with the notification procedures set out in this clause 11, the Company shall pay base salary in the event of absence due to sickness in accordance with the Employee’s length of service as set out below and always provided the total absence comprises no more than 6 separate periods of absence within any 12 month period (“Company Sick Pay”).

Length of Service		Period of Entitlement during any 12 month period
Up to 6 months		5 days full pay
6-12 months		2 weeks full pay 2 weeks half pay
1-2 years		6 weeks full pay 6 weeks half pay
3 years and over		13 weeks full pay 13 weeks half pay

11.6		Company Sick Pay is inclusive of any Statutory Sick Pay (“SSP”) to which the Employee may be entitled, in respect of such absence and is subject to tax and National Insurance deductions. After an Employee’s entitlement to Company Sick pay has expired, sick pay will be made in accordance with the SSP arrangements, if the Employee is eligible. Failure to comply with the Company’s sickness procedures, failure to satisfactorily explain absence, or giving misleading or false statements may lead to disciplinary action including in serious cases, dismissal.
11.7		The Company reserves the right to require you at its expense to submit to such medical examination by a medical adviser nominated by the Company as the Company may from time to time require in the event of prolonged, recurrent or frequent absence due to sickness or at any time upon written request.
