When I worked for a national we only got lieu days if we were on call on bank hols. Then 1 days holiday extra or a days money + 4 hours overtime and time if we were out on call over 4 hours we'd get an hour for an hour.

A bit off topic but related.

I have to keep 5days accrued holidays spare for the christmas closedown but do not get any leu days when on call during the holiday apart from the public holidays.

Is this the norm in the industry ???

taa

I dunno about norm but we do the same. We have always shutdown (except emergency) during Christmas
