How to calculate salary for working on Labor Day?
According to Article 39 of the Labor Standards Act, if the employer obtains the employee's consent to attend work on Labor Day (May 1) or Labor Day compensatory leave (May 2) this year, the salary needs to be doubled. The calculation formula is based on the leave.
