Indonesian Government has set a national holiday and common leave for the year 2010 as many as 17 days, consisting of 14 national holidays (four of which fall on Saturday or Sunday), and a maximum of 3 days of common leaves. This early announcement of national holidays, religious, and common, among others, is to prevent employees skipping work taking advantage of the holidays.

This decree is stipulated in the Joint Decree (Surat Keputusan Bersama – SKB) which was signed by Minister of State for Administrative Reform, Minister of Religious Affairs, and Minister of Manpower and Transmigration. “It is also intended for staff / employees leave planning, so that operational activities of the office / unit organization can run well,” said Minister Taufiq Effendi, in Jakarta, Friday (7 / 8).

Additionally, the policy is also intended to improve employee discipline. In this case, the leadership of the organization unit can take disciplinary action to employees who violate the regulation.

These common leaves does not add to the already established public holidays, as it will be used offsetting employees annual leaves.

For government agencies that still impose a six-day work week, whereby Friday is a national holiday or a common leave, the management of the institution may set Saturday as a holiday. “As a substitute, increasing the effective working hours on other days should be taken into account, so the effective working hours of 37.5 hours per week can be fulfilled,” said the Minister.
