    We rang the fair trade people about our pay obligations. The guy at fair trade said that Friday was a public holiday and tuesday was a national day off. I had no idea there was a difference but apparently there is.

    Good Friday is a non trading day. The Tuesday was a public holiday. Woolworths was not open on Friday. It was on Tuesday.

    I'm pretty sure you get paid for public holidays unless you're casual. DH works in retail and he was paid for all of the public holidays over Easter even though he didn't work them.

    If you were expected to be at work they should have paid you public holiday rates. I'm not sure whether they should have paid you or not if you didn't turn up though.
