JAKARTA - Minister of Tourism and Creative Economy Sandiaga Salahuddin Uno proposed that one working day be between holidays (Jepit Day) so that it becomes a red date or holiday only.
"If the national holiday falls on the weekend, this must have compensation. Whether it's paid his salary or Monday it's a holiday. Yes, Monday or Friday," said Sandiaga Uno, Monday, January 9.
Sandiaga Uno assessed that work and holidays must be balanced, even this is based on research that explains that increasing holidays can make people more productive.
Not a few netizens also agreed with Sandiaga Uno's suggestion regarding this tight day. However, there are also those who disagree because this proposal reduces predetermined working hours.
There are at least a few tight days in 2023. Starting with Nyepi Day Saka New Year 1945 which falls on Wednesday and Thursday, March 22 and 23, 2023. This big day has a tight day on Friday, March 24, 2023.
