    They sent out a FAQ over it last month saying:

    For the Xmas period Closure Days, do I still need to book them off even if they are not my normal working days?
    Yes, you do. Historically, managing these days has been really tricky especially as schedules change and this creates a lot of work to cross-reference who is and isn't scheduled to work on those days and then booking leave for just those people. Having everyone book them off at the same time is not only fairer, but it also saves the team a lot of coordination/admin time. It also saves the business much-needed cash because we won't need toIs cover those shifts.
    Is the organisation fully closed on those days, except perhaps for security staff?  If so, this is a nonsense.
