Bank Holiday Payments

Post by pinstripe »

What is the rate of pay if you are working on Good Friday (in England)?

Is it time and a half plus a lieu day, or double time and a half?

It used to be either time & half & a day in lieu or double time up until they ditched it years ago & gave everyone the day off instead :cuppa

Do we get Monday off? I had a look at the rota today and everyone is marked down for being in on Monday? Is this a mistake or are we really being made to work Bank Holiday Monday?

Friday and Monday are bank Holidays, so it's a mistake. has it been marked in a darker colour than the other days?
