Entitlements to Public Holidays are governed by The Organisation of Working Time Act 1997 and the method for calculating payment for Public Holidays is covered by Statutory Instrument No 475 of 1997.

In this podcast, Linda Reid, Senior Employer Relations Executive and Lorraine Parkes Senior Employer Relations Team Lead, discuss entitlements when a public holiday falls at the weekend.

For further guidance, Ibec members can take a look at our FAQ's in advance of the upcoming public holiday and our Ibec 2023 Shift Work Report.

The annual Ibec Employment Law Conference takes place on Thursday, 18 April in the Dublin Royal Convention Centre. The central theme of this year's conference, The Employment Paradox aims to delve into the changing policies surrounding the employer-employee relationship.
