හැබැයි ඉතිං මිනිහගෙ කොම්පැනියක වැඩ කරන මගේ යාලුවෙක් ඉන්නව, 16 වෙනිද ප්‍රයිවට් අයටත් ගැසට් එකෙන්ම දුන්න නිවාඩුව දුන්නෙත් නෑ.
ඊට පස්සෙ 17,18,19 කරන්න කිව්ව "වර්ක් ෆ්රොම් හෝම්" එක දීලත් නෑ. අද ඇදිරිනීතිය නිසා තමා අද හාෆ් ඩේ දාල නැත්තෙ,නැත්නම් අදත් වැඩ.
මගේ යාලුව කරන්නෙ අත්‍යවශ්‍ය සේවාවලට වැටෙන එකක් නෙමේ & ගෙදර ඉදල PC එකෙන් කරන්න පුලුවන් ජොබ් එකක්.

ධම්මික පෙරේර රටේ අයට පේන්න කරනව වගේම තමන්ගෙ ලග වැඩ කරන අයටත් මානුශිකව සැලකුවනම් තමා හොද.

just one clarification, the gazetted holidays does not have mandatory holidays for the private sector as the govt cannot force it.

they have requested the private sector to give those holidays. Its up to each private company to either give it or not give it.

check the actual gazette that was issued for this.

The Govt has no law that allows them to give out mercantile holidays like this.

Thats why they always request the private sector instead of outright ordering them to give holidays.
