Whilst analysts, predict the April 29 wedding will provide a massive boost to the UK economy, largely through retail sales, hotel bookings, and hospitality trade...each public holiday also typically costs the economy billions in lost productivity.
On the ground though, away from Analysts in tall glass towers, the Federation of Small Businesses is worried about the timing of the wedding. A holiday so soon after Easter increases the chances of many workers taking extra holiday time — or a few unauthorized sick days — to extend their time off. With a bit of clever jiggery-pokery, employees can have an 11-day break....and who isn't going to try and wangle that?
