Holiday pay should be paid accordingly, particularly the regular holiday.
On November 15, 2019 Presidential Proclamation No. 845 declared, among others, Eid’l Fitr as a national holiday. Under R.A. 9492, Eid’l Fitr was declared as a regular holiday. It is a movable date. See the PDF of Proclamation 845 here.
Under Proclamation No. 845, the proclamations declaring national holidays for the observance of Eid’l Fitr shall be issued after the approximate dates of the Islamic holidays have been determined in accordance with the Islamic calendar (Hijra) or the lunar calendar, or upon Islamic astronomical calculations, whichever is possible or convenient. To such end, the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos (NCMF) is tasked to inform the Office of the President of the actual dates on which these holidays shall respectively fall.
Hence, on May 19, 2019 Proclamation No. 944 was issued stating that the NCMF has recommended May 25, 2020 as a national holiday in observance and celebration of the Eid’l Fitr (Feast of Ramadhan). See the PDF of Proclamation No. 944 here.
For instance, Ms. Julie Henderson is a Waitress of Murana Marumifa Foodhouse located in NCR with at least twenty employees. She receives minimum wage for her pay. For instance, she worked on the said regular holiday and even rendered an overtime of two (2) hours. How should her pay be computed?
In the example provided below, the COLA will be disregarded since the NCR minimum wage based on Wage Order No. 22 has no more COLA.
Thus:
Daily Wage – PhP537.00
Hourly Equivalent – PhP 67.125
Thus, there are two regular holidays to be paid:
- The employee did not work
If the employee in NCR did not work on the regular holiday mentioned, she shall be paid 100% of the wage. Since the NCR rate will be used there is no COLA.
Formula: [(Basic Wage + COLA) X 100%]
Illustration:
PhP537.00 x 100% = PhP537.00
- The employee worked
If the employee worked on the regular holiday he shall be paid and additional 100% of his wage for that day 
for the first eight hours.
Formula: [(Basic Wage + COLA) X 200%]
Illustration:
PhP537.00 x 200% = PhP1,074.00
If the employee worked in excess of eight hours or overtime work, he shall be paid additional 30% of his hourly rate on said regular. For instance, he worked for two (2) hours.
Formula: [(Hourly Rate of the Basic Wage X 200% x 130% x number of hours worked]
Illustration:
PhP537.00 / 8 hours = PhP67.125
OT work rate 130%
OT work is 2 hours
PhP67.125 x 200% x 130% x 2
PhP134.25 x 130% x 2
PhP174.525 x 2
PhP349.05
Thus:
First 8 hours PhP1,074.00
OT Work of 2 hours PhP 349.05
TOTAL PAY PhP1,423.05
If the employee worked on regular holiday which also falls on his rest day he shall be paid additional 30% of the basic wage of 200%.
Formula: [(Basic Wage + COLA) 200%] + [30% (Basic Wage x 200%)]
Illustration: (Disregard COLA there being no COLA in NCR)
[PhP537.00 x 200%] + [30% (PhP537.00 x 200%)]
PhP1,074.00 + [30% (PhP1,074.00)]
PhP1,074.00 + PhP322.20
PhP1,396.20
If he rendered overtime work on a regular holiday which falls also on his rest day, he shall be paid an additional 30% of his hourly rate on said day. For instance, he worked for 2 hours.
Formula: (Hourly rate of the basic wage x 200% x 130% x 130% x number of hours worked)
Illustration:
PhP537.00 / 8 hours = PhP67.125
OT work rate 130%
OT work is 2 hours
PhP67.125 x 200% x 130% x 130% x 2
PhP134.25 x 130% x 130% x 2
PhP174.525 x 130% x 2
PhP226.8825 x 2
PhP453.765
Thus:
First 8 hours (rest day) PhP 1,396.20
OT Work of 2 hours PhP 453.765
TOTAL PAY PhP2,775.065
