Employees at half a million small businesses will get an extra 2.5 days of annual leave at Christmas – equating to 120 million days in total.
To celebrate the end of the year, 44% of small and medium-sized firms will be hosting a festive party, and two in five (41%) will shut down operations entirely between Christmas and New Year.
One in four (25%) will also be able to give out Christmas bonuses to staff members.
