Do London Underground workers get extra pay for working on Bank Holidays?

Answer 1

Operational staff directly employed by London Underground (e.g. station staff and drivers) do not get any extra money or days off in lieu for working on bank holidays as these are part of our normal contracted hours. Different arrangements apply to staff employed by private firms.

Answer 2

Like most rail workers, you do not have a choice of working or not, if your rostered day of work falls on a Bank Holiday, tough your working, unless you can persuade someone who is on rest day to do a swap.
