St patricks day 2012

http://www.employmentrights.ie/en/aboutnera/latestnewsevents/mainbody,71076,en.html Can anyone explain what this means for a full time worker? Is it just that you get a day in lieu instead of the Monday off if your company normally closes on bank holidays?

It's your employer's choice - they can give you an extra day's pay, an extra day of annual leave, or a paid day off within a month. A lot of employers, if not most, will give the next working day (in this case, the Monday) - but it's not guaranteed.

As that page says, the Monday is not a public holiday. It might be a bank holiday (like Good Friday), but it has no legal meaning.

Does anyone know if Mothers Day , March 18th will be 12.30 closing in the pub because the Monday will be a bank holiday for Patricks Day. I know theres a difference between Bank Holidays and Public Holidays.
