Sure, DX? I thought right to statutory holiday pay at full pay applied throughout.

But I'm drunk and I'm going to bed.

there are sometimes issues with bank holidays but you're correect there are stat obligations the employer must observe

I too have been off sick since march and i got the bank holiday pay but had to phone and ask but my contract says to get the bank holiday days u must attend a day b4 and the day after to recieve it unless u have a medical cert hope that helps

You are entitled to receive holiday pay whilst you are off sick, as to how much you get depends on what your contract says. I think there was a European case where the court has said annual leave untaken by employee on long-term sick leave may expire after 18 months, so watch out you cant indefinitely accrue leave

Hello there. This forum has a sticky about holiday pay while off sick that might be helpful.
