Can the Company Allow Employees to Have a Half-Month Tet Holiday?

According to Notice No. 4875/TB-BLDTBXH 2020:

For employees who are not subject to the provisions of clause 1 of this Notice, the employer shall decide on the options for the Lunar New Year holiday and National Day in 2021 as follows:

- The Lunar New Year holiday will be: 01 day at the end of the Year of the Rat and 04 days at the beginning of the Year of the Ox or 02 days at the end of the Year of the Rat and 03 days at the beginning of the Year of the Ox...

- Notify employees of the Lunar New Year holiday and National Day plan at least 30 days in advance before implementation.

Therefore, the above plan is just a basis for the employer to decide on the Lunar New Year holiday plan.

In practice, depending on each company's specific conditions and business situation, each company may have more or fewer days off than the above number of days, but it is important to reach an agreement with employees to ensure the rights of both parties.

Sincerely!
