The Working Time Regulations 1998 (SI 1998/1833) is the United Kingdom statutory instrument which implements the EU Working Time Directive 93/104/EC.[1] It does not extend to Northern Ireland.

These Regulations govern the time that people in the UK may work. The Regulations apply to all workers (not just employees) and stipulate minimum rest breaks, daily rest, weekly rest and the maximum average working week. First, it sets a default rule that workers may work no more than 48 hours per week (although one may opt out of it). Secondly, it granted a mandatory right to paid annual leave of at least 4 weeks (including bank holidays and public holidays).[2][3] Thirdly, it creates the right to a minimum period of rest of 20 minutes in any shift lasting over 6 hours.

It was amended by The Working Time (Amendment) Regulations 2007 to add a further entitlement of 1.6 weeks annual leave.[4] The maximum statutory annual leave entitlement is specified as 28 days - the amount a worker working a five day week would be entitled to. Part-time workers have a lower, pro-rated entitlement of leave days.

ECJ case law has confirmed that statutory holiday will continue to accrue during career breaks or sabbaticals.[5]
