I'm on shifts and we get an enhanced rate for BH's, Christmas, NY etc. How my shifts have fallen means I've worked all the Banks this year. Fine by me, I like my 4 on 4 off shift so I take the good and bad.
Not to offer anything for a bank holiday shift is a bit mean but perfectly legal.

We work on a clocking on App on the phone so clocks forward or back, we get paid for the time we are there. Do employers really pay an hour less on clock change? That's shocking.

I don't really understand the lieu day thing. I'm working this Sunday and will get paid double time from Midnight til 08:30. My shift falls on that night and I have to do it. Never been offered days in lieu.

Probably the same ones who pay an hour more for the other clock change.

I'm probably being facetious.

Yup, the argument being that when the clocks go forward you only work 11 hours but get paid 12 so it balances out.

In the 1990s we had the choice, if working a BH, to either have 2.5x pay or 1.5x AND a day in lieu; this meant that if your week of nights started at 23:00 on a Monday you could have an extra day off for the cost of an hours pay.
That, along with a number of other little tickles (like kipping half the night shift), went sometime around the minellium.

My Mrs used to work a rolling rota, 2 on, 4 off and got no extra for any shifts as it was built into her salary and no bank holidays as they were added to her leave; if she was off on a BH she had to book it as leave. When she went onto days she was on same money and leave but working Tues/Wed/Thu.

Without researching what the law states my take on it and how my staff contracts are that they get 5.6 weeks per annum. This is made up of 20 holiday days and 8 bank holidays. If they work a BH they can either receive 8 hours pay or a lieu day if worked.

As long as she has 28 days of holiday or more in a year (BHs included or not included), then it's totally legal. As is paying her her normal rate. It all depends on the contract she signed ultimately.
