Bank Holidays In May
Bank Holidays In May
There are three bank holidays in May this year but for many there is an additional day which many will regard as important…and may want to take the extra time off.
The first bank holiday is Early May Bank holiday is tomorrow, May 1st, followed by May 8th to celebrate the coronation of King Charles III, with the third being on May 29th, officially the Spring Bank Holiday.
But in between is the actual Coronation of King Charles on Saturday May 6th. The Monday becomes the bank holiday as the Coronation is on the weekend. However, there will undoubtedly be many people who will want the time to watch the coronation – even if Saturday is a normal working day.
How your employer handles this is their decision. There is certainly no obligation to grant the time off, or to pay for it if the time is taken anyway.
