    call from hmrc... geniune??

    I've been self employed for 23 years and the only way the Revenue have ever contacted me is via an official letter via good old Mr Posty. I also had an email recently from them saying I was due a rebate - I deleted it. Both sound fishy too me. x

    Average Joe Sued for Doing Teeth Whitening

    Bank Holiday Entitlement

    Holiday entitlement changed a few years back and it really doesn't matter whether you work on a Monday or not as the legal minimum holiday allowance you are entitled to if you work 5 days a week is 28 days and this includes all public and bank holidays.

    The Perfect Facial?

    Can I just add something from my point of view not everyone likes steaming or extractions. I really hate both and would never have a facial if they were included. So you may want to think of providing a range of facials that do and don't incorporate them. Also you need to think about which...

    Who'll be opening on the day of the Royal Wedding?

    This is just a paragraph from the Citizens Advice Bureau about Bank and Public Holidays which makes for interesting reading I think .... Quote "Although many workers are given time off work on bank and public holidays, your employer is not required by law to allow you time off work on these...

    Do I pay her?

    This does depend on your contract of employment but if there is nothing in it about training then yes you need to offer her the choice of being paid or having a day off in lieu as you are asking her to do something work related on her normal day off.
