Payment for work done on a public holiday


The Ministry would like to remind all employers that under the Employment Act, an employee who is required to work on a public holiday is entitled to an extra day's salary at the basic rate of pay, in addition to the gross rate of pay for that holiday. The employer and employee may

mutually agree to substitute a public holiday for any other day. For more information on the Public Holiday provisions under the Employment Act, click here.
