It is reported by TASS.
“A working day on December 31 may become non-working for employees if they are given an additional day of rest. However, this is possible under a number of conditions, ”said Shklovets.
He noted that such measures will reduce the rate of working time, which may lead to lower wages.
“Therefore, if the initiative comes from the employer, the latter should decide on the payment of this weekend,” added Shklovets.
According to him, it is possible to provide an employee with a day off on December 31 as a vacation day or a day off for previously worked overtime, or for work on a day off or a non-working holiday.
In an interview with URA.RU, expert Alexander Safonov appreciated the initiative to declare December 31 a day off, noting that such an innovation for Russia is fraught with new socio-economic problems.
