How do we handle pay? What if some employees insist on working?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">You might even get a little anxious around the topic of gifts. Should you give employee gifts on public holidays? Which holidays?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">We\u2019re here to cover all of those questions and more in this public holidays entitlement HR guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Malaysia Public Holidays<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Most years, there are eleven Malaysia public holidays, spread throughout the year celebrating a range of religious and national holidays. These are joyous days for you and your employees to enjoy!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/fVuJb1cGAo_aR9ZRO5HvtP9fqLFZawAxZpYV_W-x0rREtxGdSOavkg2BvYyUlMHGguh4BIlzc9aPgbs-GIhTIUoe57SWGGt4VrusBsktg_b7ABL3hlQ5X8eucepxq3_gKKI28C2QfuCmF7IMn6C8qMQ\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">As listed by the Ministry of Manpower, here are the eleven public holidays on the Malaysia calendar in 2024:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li class=\"\"><strong>January 1:<\/strong> New Year\u2019s Day<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>February 1-2:<\/strong> Chinese New Year<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>April 15: <\/strong>Good Friday<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>May 1:<\/strong> Labour Day<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>May 3: <\/strong>Hari Raya Puasa<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>May 15:<\/strong> Vesak Day<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>July 10:<\/strong> Hari Raya Haji<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>August 9: <\/strong>National Day<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>October 24:<\/strong> Deepavali<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"\"><strong>December 25:<\/strong> Christmas Day<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">If the public holiday falls on a Sunday, the following Monday will be a public holiday off-in-lieu.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Public Holiday Entitlement and Pay<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Your employees are entitled to their gross rate of pay on a public holiday if they weren\u2019t inexcusably absent on the day before or after the holiday and the holiday doesn\u2019t fall during approved unpaid leave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">If you have a go-getter employee who winds up working on a holiday, they are entitled to an additional day\u2019s pay at the basic rate of pay, per the Ministry of Manpower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">If your employee is not covered under Part IV of the Employment Act, you may grant them time off in lieu for working on a public holiday. The time off should consist of number of hours the two of you agree to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Corporate Gifts on Public Holidays<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Once you\u2019ve got the basics of holiday entitlement and pay, the next question is, \u201cShould we give <a href=\"https:\/\/www.giftmarket.com.my\/\">employee gifts<\/a> on public holidays?\u201d It\u2019s a great question.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Public holidays offer a great opportunity for you to honor your employees with gifts. As we\u2019ll discuss, many of Malaysia&#8217;s public holidays aren\u2019t exactly common gift-giving holidays, which gives you a great chance to really surprise and delight your team.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Instead of thinking, \u201cWhich holidays do I have to give my employees gifts,\u201d try to think in a mindset of, \u201cOn which holidays can I treat and honour my employees?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">The added benefit of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.giftmarket.com.my\/corporate-gifts\">corporate gifts<\/a> is the opportunity to put your logo on it. This is a subtle way to constantly remind your employee that you appreciate them, as they\u2019re constantly reminded who gave them the gift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Type of Employee Gift to Give for Each Holiday?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">So what type of gift should you give your employees at each holiday? Or which holidays should you consider gifting at all? Let\u2019s look at a few holidays and what to consider at each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/DGzWEeXtqDaZAodzbjsiE9CcNOZc3GGPquk9MlivFSHPySYpB466BXNFGGV7x0S6T5ELry6nXNPND6NnOcfyHYhW0b2FvaTZPciJXoucK7_cbHoZTja_NHv4jONGq3nNOjUT735JVhuIA3IVNEb5d70\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New Year\u2019s Day Gifts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">An employee appreciation gift is a great way to kick off the year. It\u2019s not a must by any means, but definitely a good idea. Consider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.giftmarket.com.my\/sub\/111\/wine-accessories\/\">wine accessories<\/a>, a branded champagne flute, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.giftmarket.com.my\/sub\/16\/mug\/\">coffee mug<\/a>, or simply a letter of appreciation that shows you and management are looking forward to a great year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chinese New Year Gifts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Like New Year\u2019s Day, most of your employees are probably not expecting a gift on Chinese New Year, but that doesn\u2019t mean an employee gift wouldn\u2019t make for a great surprise! Consider giving something red or tea-related. You might also consider a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.giftmarket.com.my\/blog\/10-best-corporate-gift-baskets-for-business-in-2022\/\">corporate gift basket<\/a> with a few things in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Labour Day Gifts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">At the heart of the May Day celebration is honoring our workers and their contributions to the country. This makes it a great holiday to give employees gifts. Consider something that makes their work lives easier \u2013\u00a0like a branded desktop accessory or a branded Bluetooth<a href=\"https:\/\/www.giftmarket.com.my\/sub\/50\/bluetooth-speaker\/\"> speaker<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">National Day Gifts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">National Day commemorates Malaysia independence from Malaysia in 1965. It\u2019s another holiday where gifts aren\u2019t exactly the norm \u2013\u00a0but that doesn\u2019t mean you can\u2019t surprise and treat your employees. Consider gifting something simple and useful!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Christmas Day Gifts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Unlike a lot of the other public holidays we\u2019ve looked at, Christmas is the holiday for gifts! Failing to give a gift on Christmas probably wouldn\u2019t result in any employees walking out on you, but many employees likely expect at least something.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">If you have a small team, consider getting personalised and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.giftmarket.com.my\/blog\/unique-gifts-for-employees-that-boost-morale-show-appreciation\/\">unique gifts<\/a> for each team member. This is a great way to wow them and create a special memory with your company. If you have a larger team, this might not be possible. In that case, consider something meaningful. A pen or USB case might be nice on other occasions, but Christmas requires a little more thought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Consider gifting your employees something fun like a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.giftmarket.com.my\/item\/3400\/portable-popcorn-machine\/\">portable popcorn machine<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.giftmarket.com.my\/sub\/185\/smart-devices\/\">a smart device<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.giftmarket.com.my\/category\/10\/t-shirts-wearables\">stylish shirt<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Holidays<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Good Friday, Hari Raya Puasa, Vesak Day, Hari Raya Haji, and Deepavali are all religious holidays. It can be a nice gesture to give gifts to employees you know celebrate the holidays, and it can even be appropriate to give gifts to all of your employees on these days \u2013&nbsp;but it\u2019s entirely up to you and your company\u2019s culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Heart of Employee Gifts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">At the end of the day, you should give employees gifts to show appreciation and thanks for their contributions to your company. Holidays provide a great opportunity to do this, but you shouldn\u2019t limit your gifting only to public holidays.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Let your team know you appreciate them. It will be well worth the investment as you create a culture of gratitude in your workplace and retain top talent for years to come!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Public holidays in Malaysia are festive times to celebrate, enjoy friends, spend time with family, and \u2013 of course \u2013\u00a0take time off of work.
