Paying Staff on Easter Sunday.
2 Answers
Hi
Although I am aware that it is optional to pay staff extra on Bank Holidays, but what about Easter Sunday?
Are there any legal requirements about how much staff should be paid for working on Easter Sunday? As I am aware that some shops aren't even allowed to open?

Unless you work in a "large shop" (which now includes garden centres), Easter Sunday is treated as any other Sunday in the year for the purposes of wages, working hours, etc. If you do work in a large shop, you get the day off as they are not allowed to open. (Incidentally, this is due to Sunday Trading laws and has nothing to do with employment law.)
In any other business, the fact that this Sunday falls between Good Friday & Easter Monday is of no consequence.
