Ok, so one for our UK peeps, but with Queens Jubilee approaching, it's worth remembering that yet another "public holiday" has been granted.
Always great when you are an employee, but it can be a real pain if you are running a business. Employers potentially could choose not to recognise this bank holiday. The Beeb has an interesting post on workers rights:
BBC News - Diamond Jubilee: Your rights to a day off work
So what does everyone else feel, good excuse for an extended holiday, or another disruption to the working week at your expense?
I am not an employee so I will spend most of the time working on my business. My personal opinion is that all bank holidays should be abolished with the days added to a persons holiday entitlement. They choose when to take the days which will help employers and give the employees choice. andrewtomkinson
“I am not an employee so I will spend most of the time working on my business. My personal opinion is that all bank holidays should be abolished with the days added to a persons holiday entitlement. They choose when to take the days which will help employers and give the employees choice.” That's a brilliant idea Andrew. I feel somewhat the same because when you do that, it wouldn't be a complete stop for the work process and at the same time, employees will also not have issues as they still get those as holidays! About me, I work from home so it's pretty much the same for me, I just need to complete my tasks before the deadline. When I choose to work is completely up to me. Nathaniel
Trouble is, depends on your type of business. If most of your potential customers, or the people you need to talk to are having the day off anyway, then it makes the whole question redundant. Or I suppose you could have an admin day? 
I had an admin day. It was planned as a short day, since everyone else was on hols but turned out I'd rather more admin backlog than I thought.  SCentral |
