[NewbieDoobie]

Does anyone know what the new holiday entitlement is since the harmonisation went through?

I take it that includes bank holidays?

 

[tiptoptaff]

Bank holidays are normal working days (no enhancements except for Xmas day and boxing day), bank holiday entitlement is rolled in to overall annual leave totals

Thank you thats what i thought

Hi Taff

So do we work Christmas Day and Boxing Day? (I'll be a Customer Host with GWR)
I thought the trains didn't run?

It's a pretty generous holiday allowance anyway

Only drivers work Christmas and Boxing day. This thread was about drivers when it was started a year ago so assumed it still was. You will need to use annual leave for them though, unless they fall on rest days

What is the annual leave entitlement for new starters into SWR ? As where I am now I get 33 + 8 on top.

Presuming you mean for drivers, I think it was 27 when I left? Hopefully someone can confirm! Just looked at ASLEF website and that says 27.

Not another firm where you have to use your annual leave for two days you get off anyway.(xmas and boxing day)
At our place we get given 2 adhoc days for them
