How to use this date
This page reports the official bank-holiday entry; it does not assume that every employer closes or that every worker receives an extra paid day. If the source labels a date as a substitute day, the note is retained in the table rather than moved to the calendar date of the named occasion.
For leave planning, choose the division where you work and check the result against your contract, rota and employer booking policy.
