Acas advice over the festive season
15 December 2016
The Christmas season can have a big impact on businesses as holiday requests increase and the winter weather can cause travel disruptions.
While thousands will be celebrating with time off, many others will carry on working. A common myth is that an employee is entitled to have bank holidays off but the reality is it depends on what's in their contract.
Acas has a festive guide with advice on:
- Christmas bank holidays
- Annual leave over the Christmas period
- Sickness absence during the Christmas season
- Christmas parties
