A labor advisory has been released for employers to observe holiday pay rules on Independence Day.
How workers shall be paid depends on the following holiday pay rules on Independence Day (June 12, 2022, Sunday) that the Department of Labor and Employment’s (DOLE) Labor Advisory No. 14 told employers to observe:
- If there is no work on that day, workers shall be paid 100% of their daily wage. Thus, (basic wage + COLA) (100%). The cost of living allowance (COLA) is included in the computation of the holiday pay.
- If there is work on that day, workers shall be paid 200% of their daily wage for the first 8 hours. Thus, (basic wage + COLA) (200%).
- If workers worked overtime, they shall be paid an additional 30% of their hourly rate. Thus, (hourly rate of the basic wage) (200%) (130%) (number of hours worked overtime).
- If workers worked on that day that also fell on their rest day, they shall be paid an additional 30% of their daily wage of 200%. Thus, [(basic wage + COLA) (200%)] + [(30%) (basic wage x 200%)].
- If workers worked overtime during this regular holiday that also fell on their rest day, they shall be paid an additional 30% of their hourly rate on that regular day. Thus, (hourly rate of the basic wage) (200%) (130%) (130%) (numbers of hours worked overtime).
The Labor Advisory is released on June 8, 2022.
