June Bank Holiday 2023 UK
|
Bank holidays: we plan our days off around them to maximise our annual leave; they symbolise celebrations and mark our progress throughout the year, from New Year via Easter all the way through to Christmas Eve. Use them wisely: make that long weekend even longer; turn a short break into a proper reset; spend more time at the beach; have an extra adventure; book a long lunch you’ll still be thinking about come Tuesday; treasure the extra day with your family or friends; or simply relish the solitude of solo travel for 24 more precious hours.

Under the Protection of Employees (Temporary Agency Work) Act 2012, all temporary agency employees must receive equal treatment when it comes to certain conditions of employment, e.g., Bank Holiday entitlements.
