Two holidays await Boholanos this week as All Saints’ Day and Carlos P. Garcia Day share the same the first work-week of the month of November this year.

By law, November 1, which falls on Monday has been declared special non working day.

Such is to commemorate the 114th birth anniversary of the late Boholano President Carlos P. Garcia.

By special non-working holiday, according to memorandum circular issued by the Department of Labor and Employment, workers get no pay, unless there is a favorable company policy, practice or collective bargaining agreement (CBA) granting payment of wages on special days.

If workers are forced to work on the day, they get 30% more of their 100% daily rate in the first 8 hours of work.

When working in excess of 8 hours, workers get an additional 30% of hourly rate on said day.

On the day, if it is the employee’s rest day and if worked, his first 8 hours gets an additional 50% of his daily rate. If he works over 8 hours, he gets 30% of his hourly rate on said day.

For the 114th CPG Day, Capitol has lined up activities to remember the most illustrious Boholano who is represented as a star in the Bohol flag.
 
On the other hand, according to Bohol Governor Edgar Chatto, the day’s commemoration activities include the visit of Department of Education Secretary Amin Luistro.
