3.8 Goddess Day is coming soon, some units / enterprises will give the goddesses a half-day holiday, and most of the enterprises will not take a holiday, there is no holiday of the goddesses complained, then, is it the regulations that must take a half-day holiday?
According to the regulations, there are two main kinds of national holidays in our country, one is the holiday of all citizens, and the other is the holiday and commemoration day of some citizens. The first is New Year's Day, Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, Labor Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and National Day, which must be holidays and are national; the second mainly includes Women's Day, Youth Day, Children's Day, and Army Founding Day. However, if all citizens take holidays on Saturdays and Sundays, they should make up for the holidays on weekdays; some citizens' holidays, if they fall on Saturdays and Sundays, will not make up for the holidays.
Therefore, these two kinds of holidays are statutory holidays, compared with the statutory holiday days of all citizens, women's day and other holidays for some citizens are only different in terms of applicable objects and compensatory leave. Both do not have to give 3 times the salary if they do not take a holiday.
However, many people wonder, why do so many units/enterprises, Women's Day do not have a holiday, there is no 3 times the salary and no prosecution? Then we have to look at another letter, which reads: Regarding the provisions on the holidays of some citizens such as Women's Day and Youth Day, during the holidays of some citizens, the unit shall pay wages and remuneration to employees who participate in celebrations organized by the society or units and work as usual, but do not pay overtime wages. This letter directly explains that some citizens' holidays such as Women's Day can be free of holidays or without 3 times the salary.
This document was actually a letter to Shanghai in 2000, but since then, almost all the labor departments in the country have handled it in accordance with the provisions of this letter. It is reasonable to say that the former has more legal effect, but because it is directly related to the cost of labor and enterprises, more enterprises quietly implement the latter, and the relevant government departments will acquiesce.
Therefore, if you want to take a holiday on Goddess Day, it depends on the degree of humanization of the corporate culture of your work unit. However, many companies do not take a holiday but will have some warm gifts to send to female employees, which is also very good.
