How are regular holidays that fall within a period of temporary shutdown compensated?

The compensation for regular holidays that occur during a temporary shutdown adheres to the established rules governing regular holiday pay. This means that even if the workplace is shut down temporarily, employees are entitled to their regular holiday pay.

Typically, in most jurisdictions, employees who are eligible for holiday pay should still receive their full pay for those holidays as if they had worked a regular day. This ensures that employees are compensated for holidays regardless of whether they are actively working or if the business operations are paused.

In contrast, the other options present alternatives that do not align with existing regulations for holiday compensation, such as receiving double pay or only half pay, or not being compensated at all, which are not standard practices for holiday pay during shutdown periods. Recognizing that the standard rules apply helps to maintain fairness and compliance with labor laws regarding statutory benefits.
