Wherever you work, you're entitled to be paid for statutory minimum holidays whether you're a full-time employee, part-time, agency or casual worker. The only situation where you're not entitled to holidays is if you're genuinely self-employed or an independent contractor. Agency or casual workers might be told they'll get extra pay on top of their hourly rate instead of being given paid holiday leave. This is called rolled-up holiday pay, and the idea is that you store up the extra pay and use it when you want to take time off work. Employers are no longer allowed to do this as it's a disincentive to take holiday because workers receive no pay when they actually take holiday. If this happens to you, you should take the steps mentioned in the section above.
