This link mentions holiday pay. We are told that the 'contractors' are forced to take a month off, unpaid, and often not of their choosing.

Not to mention all the other worker's right, including sick day.
The contractors find themselves as both the employer and employee in their employment equation. I don’t think this has happened by chance.
Those employed directly that have been unilaterally allotted Annual Leave days without 30 days notice are entitled to have the days returned to them as set out by the Act.
