The rates for payment for holiday pay and sickness allowance will
remain the same: for a paid holiday the same wages as the worker would have
earned if he had worked on that day; and half of that sum for sickness
allowance.
The Bill, if approved, will be enforced in two stages. The first
part, dealing with sickness allowance, will come into force as from July 1,
1973; and the second part, dealing with paid holidays, will be effective from
January 1, 1974.
