Notes

Where a fixed date public holiday falls on a weekend, there is no legal entitlement to for the next working day to be a holiday. If this happens a worker is entitled to either:

  • A paid day off in the same month as the public holiday
  • An extra day of annual leave
  • An extra day's pay
  • The nearest church holiday to the public holiday as a day off.
