About Course

“Pro rata” means “in proportion”. Part-time salaries, holiday entitlement, allowances and many workplace figures are worked out pro rata. This course teaches you how to calculate pro-rata pay and holiday step by step – including statutory holiday of 5.6 weeks, part-year starters and allowances – with worked examples you can use to check your own figures.
