Holidays and non-working days: what is the difference

The holidays and the non-working days They have differences that all employees must know in order to know when they should work, when they should not and what they can demand in each case. During holidays, employees are not required to work. If they do so, they must be paid a double day (100% more than a normal day). And when a traditional holiday is not worked, employees are paid as a single day, even if they have not gone to the office or performed tasks.

On non-working days, unlike holidays, employers are the ones who have the decision of whether or not to make their employees work. In that case, if tasks are provided on that date, no additional or differentiated payment is included, meaning it is the same as any other day on which the person works. However, the distinction with regular work days lies elsewhere: if there is no work activity by decision of the employer, the day is not recovered.
