I am a monthly paid and regular employee, Our company just release this policy that the employee is not entitled for a holiday pay if he/she didnt show-up before the day of the regular or legal holiday. The situation is like this, I wasnt able to work before the day of the Legal holiday because I am sick. The President declared Labor day to move this Monday which is May 3, so this means that the legal holiday falls on May 3 (Monday)and Saturday is our regular working day (May 1), this day is our critical working days so either the employee is sick or not, is required to work or if will provide a medical certificate and this day I wasnt able to show-up at work and had called the office. Is there any rule in labor code that if the employee dont work before the day of legal holiday or any holidays is not entitled to get paid? Please give your insights to this I am really confused. Thank you and more powers!
