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 or the nearest church holiday to the public holiday as a day off.
