most workplaces seem to be able to write their own rules, they can probably get away with it legally

Unfortunately, if the office or store or whatever won't be open then the employees can't come to work. I'm sure the supervisors want to take the time off for Christmas and enjoy the holiday. Just remember to plan for this next year.

This also happens to me last week i was off work because of a factory shut down and at Christmas the same will happen but they can't tell us how many days we will need until the client tells my employer it's written into my contract that when the client has a shut down we will also be off unless we can be fitted in at another unit.If we don't have enough holidays we just don't get payed.

Speak to your Union representative or similar. I doubt they can do it without prior notice or it being written into your contract.
At our place we get 26 days, 3 of which are allocated to the xmas-new year period, but we were all aware of that when we started.
As to being forced to take bank holidays as part of your allowance, the law has now changed for the better and that will no longer be allowed, so you should get your full entitlement in future.

Well I think you don't have a choice if your company operations will be suspended during the holidays. The answer is yes, if they informed the employees at least a couple of weeks in advance, this advance notification requirements differs from state to state. Otherwise, it is called unfair labor practice.

Yes they can do that.
I had an employer who used to make us take all bank holidays as leave. He only gave 15 days a year so to lose ten days on bank holidays was quite a chunk. He also said that we couldn't take more than three consecutive days.
Nothing we could do about it.

i'm afraid you are able to no longer rigidity the holiday. they're entitled to artwork the time till you distinctive it of their letter of job furnish or their settlement that there could be a 4 day era of unpaid go away. in case you probably did no longer try this then you definitely are caught. are you able to take the prospect to get them to artwork and do elementary housework jobs - tidying the workplace, the submitting gadget etc this could rigidity a number of them to take go away besides the actuality that be cautious you at the instant are not unreasonable in what you ask them to do eg workplace admin is positive - portray the partitions isn't. it somewhat is uncertain in the adventure that your 20 days contains your public vacations yet whilst they do and you rigidity them to take the 4 days then you definitely breach the eu regulation meaning they could desire to have usual vacations by using the 12 months. in the event that they're new team can the time no longer be used for further training etc - if no longer i'm afraid you are able to desire to pay them - sorry

Nothing at all illegal. If the business closes over the holidays they have the right to not pay employees or to make employees use vacation or holiday pay for the time.
