This is another very popular question from employers that is asked of Thessa and her Domestic Help team...
And the answer is....
An employee is entitled to 7 days' annual leave with pay after serving every period of 12 months under a continuous contract.
An employee's entitlement to paid annual leave will increase progressively to a maximum of 14 days according to his length of service as follows:
Years of Service Annual Leave Entitlement (days)
1 7
2 7
3 8
4 9
5 10
6 11
7 12
8 13
9 (or more) 14
