'Lebaran' holidays<\/p>\n
From Pikiran Rakyat<\/p>\n
After reading Kang Atang Ruswita's letter about \"Lebaran\"
\nholidays on Feb. 14, 1997, I came to the conclusion that neither
\nAyi, who brought up the holiday matter, nor Akang who commented
\non it, were aware of the holiday regulations pertaining to Civil
\nService and State Company employees.<\/p>\n
There are several holiday categories, for instance: annual
\nleave, sick leave, maternity leave, special leave (because of
\nsickness or death in the family), and others, based on
\nestablished rules.<\/p>\n
Employees are entitled to 12 days annual leave after more than
\none year of service. This leave can be taken in parts if the
\napplicant's request for leave has been approved by management.
\nManagement has the right to postpone the requested leave for a
\nfew days or reject it altogether. The applicant is then entitled
\nto file a new request at a later date.<\/p>\n
I am appealing to the public and the mass media to understand
\nand respect the rights of government employees, whose leave
\nregulations have been drawn up by the Indonesian government. This
\nis why those on vacation, approved by their department chiefs,
\nwere not in their offices. The employees do not need to be
\nreprimanded because their requests had been approved before.<\/p>\n
As for the government, in this case department chiefs handling
\npayments, or, fines (example: the fresh water counter (PDAM) in
\nthe Margahayu Raya complex), I would like to appeal to them: If a
\ncertain counter is not able to service payments because the
\nrespective official is on leave, it might help if a clear
\nannouncement was made about the re-opening date of the counter.
\nAnd if, for this reason, payment deadlines can not be met by
\ncustomers, respite for the delay should be made. A delayed
\ndeadline should be given in such cases and late fines
\nsubsequently canceled at a later date.<\/p>\n
I hope my analysis may become food for thought for the
\nrespective parties.<\/p>\n
