Paid on a bank holiday

I am paid on the 25th every month, this month it falls on Monday which is a bank holiday. Does this mean I will get paid Tuesday or Friday?

Normally if pay day falls on a weekend, I get paid on the Friday...

    I'm quite sure that the only person who knows that is your employer.

    In the case of my work, I get paid on the 25th of every month. Because Monday is a bank holiday and on the 25th, I will be paid on Friday 22. But that is just my employer's policy.
    You're spelling is effecting me so much. Im trying not to be phased by it but your all making me loose my mind on mass!! My head is loosing it's hair. I'm going to take myself off the electoral role like I should of done ages ago and move to the Caribean. I already brought my plane ticket, all be it a refundable 1.

    Friday.

    Standard version (used by many companies) of employment policy contains "....no later than 25th of every month..."
    All I ask is the chance to prove that money can't make me happy.

    I think you are better off asking your HR department than someone anonymous on an internet forum.

    I have been paid before and after (not for the same month sadly)- ask HR/payroll to be sure

    I'd check with your HR department.

    I've worked somewhere before where if Paid was on a Weekend or Bank Holiday it fell to the nearest working day...

    So a saturday was paid Friday, and sunday was a monday. Thus a bank holiday was paid tuesday

    Our HR department is two monkeys flinging paper at each other... ;-)

    It's not urgent, just wanted to know...

    That's what this site is for isn't it, asking random strangers for advice?
