12th Holidays

[Hereiam]

Just had alook at the ole work Holiday chart there and to my surprise we are only off the Monday after the Twelfth. That means we have only been given 11 statutory days this year compared to 12 every other year. Are other places the same or are we been shafted.

I think we should have the 12th off down south as a show of unity with the protestant comunity!

Unless you are a public sector worker in the north you've no statutory entitlement. Also, didn't some of the public sector (Health boards I think) sacrafice a Bank holiday or two for extra annual leave.
