Selangor employers who chose Sultan’s Silver Jubilee Oct 25 holiday must observe it, says Labour Dept

Selangor employers must treat October 25 as a paid public holiday if chosen, marking Sultan Sharafuddin's Silver Jubilee.

Employers with Sunday as a rest day must offer October 26 as a replacement holiday according to the Employment Act.

Alternatively, employers can agree with employees to replace the holiday on a different day per the Act.

SHAH ALAM, Oct 1 — The special public holiday on October 25 in conjunction with the Silver Jubilee of the 25-year reign of the Sultan of Selangor, Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah, must be observed by private-sector employers in Selangor who have chosen it as one of their paid public holidays.

The Department of Labour Peninsular Malaysia (JTKSM) said employers who designate Sunday as a rest day must provide a replacement paid public holiday on October 26 (Monday), in accordance with Section 60D(1) of the Employment Act 1955.

“Alternatively, with the agreement of their employees, employers may replace the paid public holiday with another day, in accordance with the Act,” it said in a statement today.

The department said the special public holiday was declared under subsection 9(1) of the Holidays Act 1951 [Act 369], which allows the state government to declare any day as a public holiday in the state.

On September 11, the Selangor state government announced October 26 as a replacement public holiday for the entire state following the declaration of October 25 as a special public holiday in conjunction with the Silver Jubilee celebration.

Selangor State Secretary Datuk Dr Ahmad Fadzli Ahmad Tajuddin said the replacement holiday was declared because the celebration and the special public holiday fell on a Sunday. — Bernama

如果选择 10 月 25 日作为带薪公共假日，以纪念苏丹沙拉夫丁登基 25 周年，雪兰莪州的雇主必须将这一天视为公共假日。

根据《雇佣法》，以星期日为休息日的雇主必须提供 10 月 26 日作为补休日。

或者，雇主可以与雇员协商，根据该法案在其他日期补休。

莎阿南，10月1日讯——为庆祝雪兰莪苏丹沙拉夫丁·伊德里斯·沙阿登基25周年银禧纪念，10月25日为特别公众假期。雪兰莪州选择10月25日作为带薪公众假期的私营企业雇主必须遵守该假期。

马来西亚半岛劳工部 (JTKSM) 表示，根据 1955 年雇佣法令第 60D(1) 条规定，将星期日指定为休息日的雇主必须在 10 月 26 日（星期一）提供带薪公共假期作为补偿。

“或者，经员工同意，雇主可以根据该法案的规定，用另一天代替带薪公共假日，”该机构今天在一份声明中表示。

该部门表示，特别公共假日是根据 1951 年假日法（第 369 号法案）第 9(1) 条宣布的，该条款允许州政府宣布任何一天为该州的公共假日。

9月11日，雪兰莪州政府宣布，由于10月25日被宣布为与银禧庆典相关的特别公共假日，10月26日将作为全州的替代公共假日。

雪兰莪州秘书长拿督阿末法兹利·阿末·塔朱丁博士表示，由于庆祝活动和特别公共假期恰逢周日，因此宣布放假以代替原定假期。——马新社
