Bank Holiday Attendance?

Post by the beautiful bd south »

what is the procedure in your office for Night duties which start on a bank holiday / normally sunday?

In the past we were allowed to book overtime for any hours worked on the bank holiday and then work our normal shift from midnight? (most people choosing day in leau option)

This has now been changed and we are told we will recieve a bank holiday premium for any duty hours worked on a bank holiday?

Anything worked on a bank holiday for two hours or more entitles you to either option a or option b which is higher rate of overtime of lower rate of overtime and a day in lieu.
