Dear Rama Krishna, I have a doubt that needs clarification. Are national holidays like May Day applicable for workmen, staff, and officers, or only for workmen? Kindly clarify.
National holidays, like May Day if declared under a statute of your state, are applicable to the entire establishment. When the entire establishment needs to be closed on such holidays, all those working in the establishment, irrespective of whether they are workmen or managers, are entitled to the holiday.
May Day is one of the mandatory holidays in Maharashtra (there are four) as it is also Maharashtra Day. For other states, please check with the concerned labor officer.
