<p>The Working Time Regulations entitle all workers in the UK to 5.6 weeks paid annual
leave. This is an important right, and evidence suggests that the number of employees
not taking it is very small. Labour Force Survey analysis shows that the vast majority
of workers (95 per cent) report receiving their entitlement to paid leave. Similarly
the 4<sup>th</sup> Work Life Balance Employees survey indicates that 93 per cent of
employees receive their full statutory annual leave entitlement.</p><p> </p><p>Statutory
holiday entitlement can be calculated online at <a href="http://www.gov.uk/calculate-your-holiday-entitlement"
