Bank Holidays - Important information for Part Time Employees and Managers
Wedi ei bostio ar Dydd Llun 24th Chwefror 2025
Part time employees and those who take their leave in hours need to book leave if a bank holiday falls on a day that they are scheduled to work. Bank holiday entitlement for part time employees is included in the part time leave entitlement - it is essential to book bank holidays off as annual leave/holidays through iFOR Employee Self Service. Please follow this link to log in https://ifor.torfaen.gov.uk.
The Service Area you work in will determine whether you are Bank Holiday Table 1 or Bank Holiday Table 2 below. For example, if you are an employee that works between Christmas and New Year, Bank Holiday Table 2 would be applicable as you would not have the Christmas Break Bank Holidays.
Please book your 2025/2026 leave year Bank Holidays in advance – Bank Holiday dates listed below:
