Previously, the Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs proposed two options for this longest holiday of the year.
Option 1
Accordingly, civil servants and public employees will have a holiday from Thursday, February 8, 2024 to Wednesday, February 14, 2024 (ie December 29, Quy Mao year to January 5, Giap Thin year). With this plan, on the occasion of Lunar New Year 2024, civil servants and public employees will have 7 days off (including 5 days off for Lunar New Year and 2 days off in lieu of weekly holidays as prescribed in Clause 3, Article 111 of the Labor Code).
Option 2
The Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs proposed to have 1 day off before Tet and 4 days off after Tet. Accordingly, civil servants and public employees will have a holiday from Friday, February 9, 2024 to Thursday, February 15, 2024 (ie December 30, Quy Mao year to January 6, Giap Thin year).
With this plan, on the occasion of Lunar New Year, civil servants and public employees will also have 7 days off (including 5 days off for Lunar New Year and 2 days off in lieu of weekly days off, according to regulations in Clause 3, Article 111 of the Labor Code).
According to the Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs, both proposed options have the same number of days off, but the ministry recommends choosing option 1 because it ensures harmony between the time off before and after Tet.
