#MayPasok! 3 dates reclassified as working holidays

 


Proclamation No. 1107 – Amending Proclamation No. 986, S. 2020, declaring the regular holidays and special (non-working) days for the year 2021

This year, the country will see fewer non-working days as three traditionally non-working holidays are declared as "special working days" as ordered by  President Rodrigo Duterte on the premises of helping the economy recover from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In Proclamation 1107, the following days have been reclassified as "special working days." 

Nov. 2, 2021 - All Souls' Day 
Dec. 24, 2021 - Christmas Eve 
Dec. 31 - New Year's Eve 

These dates were previously classified as special non-working days. 

"For the country to recover from the adverse economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a need to encourage economic productivity by, among others, minimizing work disruption and commemorating some special holidays as special (working) days instead," said the president.
