kawawa naman ang mga daily rate sa dami ng deklaradong special holiday ng Pilipinas, FYI, ang mga daily rate ay no work no pay kapag special holiday...marami na ang nagagalit sa mahabang bakasyon na dapat sana ay kumikita ng mga empleyado sa private sector na daily rate
what, if we have office during saturdays, is december 27 consider non-working holiday. sana next time, include naman saturdays na kasama sa mga i-declare na non working holidays.
How about November 3? Would they consider to declare it as holiday because it's a Monday after Nov. 1? Sayang naman bakasyon, sabi nung batas dapat ilipat sa Lunes.
Folks, to reiterate what is written below: Reports have quoted Sec. Eduardo Ermita saying that October 31, eve of all Saint's Day, won't be declared as a holiday. He mentioned, however, that private employers may opt to have a half-day work on October so employees could prepare for travel to the provinces.
