How do you calculate the holiday entitlement for someone working compressed hours?

For example, if a worker works a 36-hour week (over four days instead of five days), their annual holiday entitlement is 36 hours x 4.8 weeks = 172.8 hours holiday for the year. Rather than taking a day's holiday, they would take the number of hours that they would have otherwise worked on that day (i.e. for 36 hours worked over four days, they would take 9 hours' holiday for each day otherwise worked).
