    How do i convert a €16,000 salary to an hourly rate? Do i take the working year to be 52 weeks or 48 weeks, or what?

    Well 22,000 is a little over 10 euro an hour.

    Well the €16,000 covers your (20 days?) holiday pay + bank holidays/etc too as far as I know, so it would be 52 weeks
    Salary / 52 / x = Hourly Rate
    Where x is the number of hours worked / week

    Right, thats what i was thinking alright. It does include the "20 days holiday in addition to recognised public holidays".

    Looks like i'm earning a smashing €8.02 an hour (if i do my sums correctly). Whoop dee doo! A whopping €7.69 more per month than last year :)

    EDIT: Is there any restriction on when i can take those holidays? And if i don't take them, will i get paid extra? Or am i better off using them up?

    restrictions will depend on your employers.
    some company require you to take days at certain times eg when the office is closed over Easter.

    it depends entirely upon whether or not you want to take holidays, and whether or not your company allows you to carry holidays, or pays for unused ones.

    many companies have a policy of use them or lose them.

    you may only take your holidays at the disgression of the company, or dependent on your contract.
