Bank holiday entitlement
Full-time staff are entitled to 60 paid public holiday hours per leave year (pro rata for part time staff), based on a typical leave year of eight public holidays.
The number of public holidays in each leave year may change from time to time, depending on what date Easter falls and if there is an additional public holiday in that particular year.
Staff who are required to work on a public holiday will have the entitlement to take as they wish within their normal leave entitlement.
