I need to confirm something. People who work in Dubai know that we have National Day on 2, 3, and 4 December. Now, I have a little confusion. Will the private sector also have 3 days off, or only 2 days, 2 AND 3 December?
Issue with Public Holidays and Employer Compliance
Another thing I want to ask is if my employer is not ready to give public holidays to any of the employees, and he doesn't even pay if my employees are working on public holidays. I am the company's HR Manager. I tried to make him understand that it is essential we have to pay if the employees are working on public holidays. This is wrong, but he is not ready to understand it. Can anyone suggest to me how I can convince him? I did everything possible to make him understand, but it was useless. He is on his own terms. It is not at all acceptable.
Best regards,
