Power Move- Rules for a Bank Holiday?


Does anyone know if today (bank holiday) counts as a weekend or is it just treated as a regular Monday. (On the trial the Xmas bank hols were treated like a weekend - but I don't know if that was just a bit of Xmas spirit or if it applies to all bank hols)

Hey @decroisic ,

As far as I’m aware - as a forum volunteer - Bank Holidays are exempt from Power Move. I’ll get this double checked.

Checked this myself earlier- the FAQs on the website indicate Bank Holidays are not counted (the same as during the trial) - so I’m working to that basis today and frivolously watching TV this afternoon.
