In my business, walang holiday-holiday Araw araw may pasok except sundays. I only follow the red letter days sa calendar in giving holiday pays.

Holiday economics is bad particularly for a country with the majority of people who doesn't have enough money to spend on potentially expensive luxuries such as traveling on weekend holidays.
Basically when people don't work, they do not get paid. When they don't get paid, they have no money to spend. Without any money to spend, they just stay home and twiddle their thumbs until the next workday rolls in.
People would rather work. At least they know they would get paid more in a month, which helps on the regular personal & household expenses.
Overtime pay isn't up to the employee. It is up to the employer. If it is uneconomic for the business to have people on overtime pay, then the business will not open that day. Of course you are looking at a day's worth of potential transactions lost and that is unrecoverable.
And there will be cascade effects down from that including certain services or products not being available on time when needed.
Look at China. Businesses are open 7 days a week. No such things as "weekends" or holidays (except for the week long chinese new year celebrations) to stop or slow down production and economic progress throughout the year.Last edited by ghosthunter; May 27th, 2010 at 09:44 PM.

Actually yung holiday economics sa Japan ginawa yan to improve the family life of Japanese families... Kasi their government is encouraging more family time and hopefully more ***ual activity, apparently Japan is LOSING population. More people are getting old and dying VS people getting born. The Japanese government has to do something to arrest the decline of their population. If everyone gets old and wala ng bata the economy will suffer productivity losses and who will shoulder the pensions of the old?
Dito sa Pilipinas, walang kwneta! Holiday economics lang for the sake of it. Seriously any of you thinking of going out of town for this 3 day long weekend? Not me. I am using the time to stay home!
