Title: Whether to pay when closed?
Post by: PaulineH on October 11, 2010, 08:32:17 pm

Hi Guy's

A couple of my big contracts usually take a few extra days off over the Xmas and new year period,now last year it wasn't a problem as i did all the cleaning myself. This year however i've got 5 staff working these contracts so the question is do i have to pay the staff as normal for the extra days off, on top of their bank holiday entitlement? The extra days aren't public/bank holidays!! Any advice welcome.

Thanks Pauline

A contract with the right T AND C'S will allow for this , though you could make your staff take holidays at this time , which you will have to pay them for.
