If an NHS staff member works 30 hours a week, they will be entitled to one fifth of their normal weekly working hours for each Bank Holiday. Even if they only ever worked Tuesday to Friday, they will be entitled to one fifth Bank Holiday credit. For example if they worked 30 hours a week, a credit of 6 hours is owed (30 hours divided by 5 = 6).
