How to Compute Special Day Pay for December 8, 2021 Holiday
Acquire Mastery of HR/Labor Doctrines, Rules and Principles with Atty. Elvin’s HR Bundle Books at Discounted Rate
Special days under R.A. 9492 include the last day of the year obviously falling on December 31. On December 28, 2017, R.A. 10966 was declared as a special non-working holiday in the entire country to commemorate the Feast of Immaculate Concepcion of Mary.
On 30 July 2020, Proclamation No. 986 was issued by Malacañang providing the list of regular holidays and special days for the year 2021. Special days are non-working under such proclamation. It also provides for two (2) additional special non-working days.
PDF copies of Proclamation No. 986 and Proclamation No. 1107 are available here (original files not mine).
Now, during this December special day employees have to get paid if they work under certain situation. In all, HR practitioners should be ready with the computation for work on December 8, 2020
Since this belongs to the same category which is a special day, it should be computed under the same rules. Note that special days follow the no-work, no-pay rule, unlike the regular holiday where the employee is entitled to 100% of the pay even if he did not work.
Now, the rules on the payment of special days are as follows:
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 special day 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
The basic principle here is that if the employee did not work, the “no-work, no-pay” principle shall apply unless there is a favorable company policy, practice or collective bargaining agreement (CBA) granting payment on a special day.
Rule A:
For work done during the special day, the employee shall be paid an additional 30% of the basic wage on the first eight hours of work.
Formula: [(Basic wage x 130%) + COLA]
Sample Computation:
Special Day Pay = [(PhP537 x 130%) + 0.00]
[(PhP698.10) + 0.00]
PhP698.10
Rule B:
For work done in excess of eight hours (overtime work), the employee shall be paid an additional 30% of the hourly rate on said day
Formula: (Hourly rate of the basic wage x 130% x 130% x number of hours worked)
Sample Computation:
Overtime Pay = (PhP67.125 x 130% x 130% x 2 hours of OT)
(PhP87.2626 x 130% x 2 hours of OT)
(PhP113.44125 x 2 hours of OT)
PhP226.88
Rule C:
For work done during a special day that also falls on the employee’s rest day, he shall be paid an additional 50% of the basic wage on the first eight hours of work
Formula: [(Basic wage x 150%) + COLA]
Sample Computation:
Special Day Pay = [(PhP537 x 150%) + 0.00]
[(PhP805.50) + 0.00]
PhP805.50
Rule D:
For work done in excess of eight hours (overtime work) during the special day that also falls on the employee’s rest day, he shall be paid an additional 30% of the hourly rate on said day
Formula: (Hourly rate of the basic wage x 150% x 130% x number of hours worked)
Sample Computation:
Overtime Pay = (PhP67.125 x 150% x 130% x 2 OT hours)
(PhP100.6875 x 130% x 2 OT hours)
(PhP130.9375 x 2 OT hours)
PhP261.79
Thus, total pay for the day based on different rules:
Under Rule A and Rule B (Work on Special Day with OT on such Day):
Basic Daily Wage + OT of 2 Hours
PhP698.10 + PhP226.88 = PhP924.98
Under Rule C and Rule D (Work on Special Day Falling on Rest Day with OT on such Day):
Basic Daily Wage + OT of 2 Hours
PhP805.50 + PhP261.79 = PhP1,067.29
The DOLE has yet to issue the Labor Advisory for this special day as of this writing.
