Does anyone know if DH should be given the 2nd of July for statutory holiday because it wasn't mention in the Labour Department 12 days statutory list? Just wondering if they might make a mistake in the list?.
Someone was saying that its just unfortunate that it fell on a Sunday as their reg. day off and its smiliar like when a public holiday falls on a day that is some people's reg. day off like a Saturday that some people don't really work.
tks,

According to my list this year, only the 1st is a stat holiday.
The law states that if the satutory holiday fall on the rest then the rest day must be taken the day following the rest day. (Chapter 4:1 HK Labor Law)

If your helper has Sundays off, the statutory holiday which falls on Sunday, July 1 is carried over to July 2 (or to another day within 60 days by mutual agreement).
If Sunday is not her normal day off, then she has Sunday July 1 as a holiday in addition to her normal day off.
Click on "Tools" on this page and then follow the links through "Statutory holidays" (the link is wrong, so you have to click again) to the government page which clearly answers this question.
