Regulations on 4 Days Off per Month: Applicable Subjects?

Article 111 of the 2019 Labor Code stipulates:

- Every week, employees are entitled to at least 24 consecutive hours of rest. In special cases where the labor cycle does not allow for a weekly rest, the employer is responsible for ensuring that employees have an average of at least 04 days off per month.

- The employer has the right to decide the weekly day off on Sunday or another determined day of the week but must record it in the labor regulations.

- If the weekly day off coincides with a public holiday or Tet holiday as prescribed in Clause 1, Article 112 of this Code, employees are entitled to a compensatory day off on the next working day.

Therefore, according to the above regulation, the company is responsible for ensuring that employees have an average of at least 04 days off per month.

Returning to the question you asked, currently, there are no specific regulations on which subjects the 4 days/month leave policy will apply to. Therefore, this issue will depend on each company.

Respectfully!
