Mid-Autumn Festival holiday reminder
The Labour Department today (Saturday) reminded employers that the Mid- Autumn Festival day (September 9) is one of the 11 statutory holidays for employees.
Under the Employment Ordinance, the statutory holiday for Mid-Autumn Festival should be the day following the festival. However, if the day following the festival was a Sunday, then the statutory holiday should fall on the Mid-Autumn Festival day.
According to the Ordinance, all employees, irrespective of their wage levels, are entitled to statutory holidays and must be paid for the day off if they have worked continuously for the same employer for three months or longer before the statutory holiday.
