pay for boxing day

I work in a supermarket, and have been told different things about what we are due and that is from union rep+ boss.
Will try and keep it short.
We got Xmas day off and volunteer's worked boxing day, which is my day off anyway, Was told that I would get a day off for it as it was my day off. Then told that was wrong But would get paid for it well part payment.
Then told Monday is a holiday would get a day off for it.
Then told that was wrong, In Scotland by the way.
So what do you think

    i think you need to ask your Human Resource Department because all businesses are differant and due to lack of information provided by yourself there is no chance

    Plus I really doubt your union would know!
    Always ask ACAS

    How do you reach that conclusion?
    Don’t be a can’t, be a can.
  • Monday is a Bank Holiday in Scotland. HOWEVER there is no legal right to Bank Holidays off work so no pay in lieu is due unless it is stipulated in your contract of employment.
