am just trying to figure out how many holiday days i am entitled to this year. i started a new job on aug 14th this year and have 23 days holidays per my contract. how many holiday days does that mean i'll have worked up by the end of the year...my calculations come to 8.5 days ( 23/12 * 4.5) whereas the HR dept say i'll only have 7.9 (23/12 * 4) or 8 in their eyes as they only count full months completed. is this correct on their part? or should they include the half month worked in their calculations?
