New Year's Day falls on a Sunday this year, meaning most banks and many shops will already be closed.
Because of that, January 1 2023 has not been declared a bank holiday - however many will still receive a New Year's bank holiday. Instead of January 1, workers who receive bank holidays will receive January 3 as a substitute day off.
Scots already get January 2 off, so many workers instead have four days off in total, from Saturday December 31, until Tuesday January 3, 2023.
