The city government announced the suspension of work, and the company asked to go to work as usual. “Can I not go?”

The Ministry of Labor pointed out that typhoon leave is not included in the “Labor Standards Act”, so employers can still require employees to attend work, but workers can exercise their “right to withdraw” from work according to the situation, and employers “can not pay wages”. In addition, the Ministry of Labor also advises employers Don’t deduct salary, and emphasize that “perfect attendance bonus must not be withheld”.

The company requires attendance, how is the salary calculated?

The Ministry of Labor stated that if the day is a “working day”, it is a normal salary, and it is also recommended that the employer can pay overtime pay or additional allowances.

If the day is a “rest day”, overtime pay will be paid in accordance with the law. Taking an hourly wage of 150 yuan as an example and 8 hours of attendance, the calculation method is “150 yuan x 1⅓ x 2 hours + 150 yuan x 1⅔ x 6 hours = 1900 yuan.” .

Is the company’s typhoon leave equal to unpaid leave?

If the company decides to take typhoon leave, the workers are not required to attend work. In addition, the Ministry of Labor recommends that employers “advise” not to withhold wages, nor should they be treated as absenteeism, lateness, or forcing workers to take personal leave or other leave, let alone forcing workers to make up work, withholding attendance bonuses, dismissal, or other unfavorable punishments.

Is it reasonable for employers to request to work remotely?

The Ministry of Labor pointed out that both the employer and the employee should make an agreement in advance and must obtain the consent of the employee. Employees should be paid as usual when they go to work, and additional allowances are also suggested.

The county and city where I live is closed, and the county and city where the company is located works normally. “Why don’t you go?”

If the “place of residence” and the “areas you will pass through on the way to work” are closed, but the “county and city where the company is located” goes to work normally, the worker can request not to go to work. Deduct full attendance.
