Every employee covered by the Holiday Pay Rule is entitled to the minimum wage rate (daily basic wage). This means that the employee is entitled to at least 100% of the minimum wage rate even if the employee did not report for work, provided the said employee is present or is on leave of absence with pay on the work day immediately preceding the holiday.
