Bank & Public Holidays

Normal Bank Holiday arrangements will continue to apply. Employees who work a bank holiday will continue to get either overtime or a day in lieu. The number of hours worked on the Bank Holiday will be credited back into the annual leave quota* (as a bank holiday day off in lieu). The system automatically credits hours worked back to the employee when the correct bank holiday payment is selected. Arrangements for part timers will continue to be pro-rated to ensure everyone is treated fairly regardless of the days in the week they work.

*For clarity where an individual works 2 hours or more and they choose a day in lieu they will be credited with hour’s equivalent to their average attendance for that week.

Where an individual’s rest day coincides with a Bank Holiday they will have the option of being credited with a day in lieu equivalent to the hours they would normally work on that day or alternatively they can claim BH excess equivalent to the hours they would normally work on that day

So has this been superseded, as the info I posted earlier is being interpreted as if my rest day falls on bank hol then its, if workload allows you get the bank hol in that week, this seems to be saying, if it falls on rest day then you have the choice of what to do,

Well that post is from 2012, the option for management to have the first option of giving you a day off in the same week is shown in the employment policy

Yes I know, the two for me don't match up, I know one is later than the other, however this is Royal Mail here lol, just because its from that far back doesn't mean its not valid, I'm not trying to be funny about out, as I had resigned myself to the outcome the majority said it was, the employment policy at a glance is basic to say the least.

apple - yeah I know what you mean, I've spent a lot of time looking through old agreements between RM and CWU since I joined and it's
a nightmare trying to understand what policies have been superceded or not as the case may be.
