Then, how do you calculate THR for Eid 2023? Check out the explanation below.
How to Calculate THR Eid 2023
For private employees or laborers, how to calculate THR can be done by looking at the years of service.
If you have worked for 12 months or more, you are entitled to THR equal to one month’s salary.
Whereas THR for new employees who have worked for less than 12 months, THR is given according to the proportion of their working period which is calculated based on the calculation of years of service / 12 x 1 (one) month wages.
While THR for workers with daily work agreements is calculated based on the average wage received during the last 12 months before the holiday, the same goes for workers whose wages are determined based on output units.
