Long Holidays For Workers Over Xmas & New Year Period
This year Christmas Day and New Year’s Day both fall on-Sunday and the statutory paid holidays normally observed on those days have been put forward one day. This will mean that while Christmas Day will be celebrated as usual on December 25,'the'following day, Monday, will be officially regarded as Christmas Day for statutory, holiday purposes. Boxing Day will be regarded as haying fallen on December 27. A similar position will rule at New Year, and January 2 will be a statutory paid holiday. Some awards stipulate the day following New Year’s Day as a paid holiday and where this position rules, January 3 will be observed. The arrangements, mean that all workers will have four days off at Christmas, from Saturday, December 24, to ! Tuesday, December 27, inclusive. At New Year, most workers will have three days off, and the remainder four days.
