An individual works as domestic help, 5 hours a day, 5 days a week, for the minimum wage and has been doing so for a year. PAYE and NI are deducted from pay.
I presume the individual is entitled to holiday pay and sick pay, from the employer?

They're entitled to paid holiday. 5.6 weeks pro rata. You can't pay them for holiday instead of allowing them holiday, neither can any holiday be carried over unless it is holiday days beyond the minimum. Don't think there is a legal entitlement to sick pay though. I'd contact ACAS. They have a helpline and can tell an employer/employee what their rights and responsibilities are.
