help needed, I currently work sundays and get double time for working them. I work 5 hours and get paid for 10. I requested to have a sunday of as a holiday, im marked down as 10 hours holiday, can someone please tell me if this is correct. Because I only work 5 hours on sunday should I not only be using 5 hours from my holidays?? I know I'm being paid for 10 hours but and am only receiving 5 hours holiday.. also is there a rule about having to work every bank holiday?? a bit stressed thank you
 
If you want to be paid for 10 hours, you will need to take 10 hours holiday - holiday pay is usually paid at flat rate unless your contract says otherwise. If you are happy to get 5hrs holiday pay, you can ask them if you can take just 5 hours.

What does your contract say in relation to your working hours?

I assume that you can be rostered to work every bank holiday if the company wishes to, however you will be entitled to time off in lieu or 20% of your normal weekly wage paid in addition to your normal wages for each week there is a bank holiday.
