Bank Holiday rest days !!!!

Post by islfor »

Am I right there are 3 options regarding rest day fallong on a bank holiday ?
1. Day in lieu added to annual leave
2. Extra day off in same week
3. Paid hours as overtime

Where can I find this in any agreement please ?

Not heard option 2 or 3 before, just presumed its option 1. Suppose option 2 would work with option 1 if you took the lieu day in the same week as the bank holiday.

Very strong Union in our office, the rest day is credited to your leave so we choose to take the leave in lieu within the same week ie Wednesday. :Very Happy :Very Happy

well at least a 1/3rd - which seems a little dangerous.

Dangerous not in H&S terms but proving that you can cope with only 2/3 of current staff on a busy day. :nervous :nervous
