UK workers are entitled to a statutory minimum of 28 days (5.6 weeks) of paid annual leave per year. For permanent employees this holiday is paid, so the annual gross of £100,100 already includes all 52 weeks. For freelancers and self-employed workers paid per week of work, the picture is different.

A freelancer earning £1,925 per week of actual work, taking the full 5.6 weeks of unpaid holiday, earns approximately £89,320 per year — around £10,780 less than the 52-week headline figure. This is one of the reasons contract and freelance rates are typically set higher than permanent equivalents: to compensate for unpaid leave, self-employed NI contributions, no employer pension, and the absence of sick pay or other employment benefits.

The same weekly gross of £1,925 produces different annual take-home pay depending on your region of tax residence. Scotland has its own Income Tax bands; National Insurance is set at UK level and is identical in both regions.

The £3,337/year difference reflects Scotland's divergent Income Tax bands, which apply from the first pound above the personal allowance.
