But what do you think about making someone's work mandatory during holidays?
Yes, I think every company has different rules and understanding of work policies for its employees. I think that all of them have certain policies, such as calculating overtime and so on.

I have a friend who works in a foreign company, the employees who work are diverse, including Muslims, Catholics, Protestants, Hindus and Buddhists, every time there is a long holiday for them, for example Christmas, Especially for believers who celebrate Christmas, they are given a holiday, as are other loyal employees. This is all for good and fair purposes, of course to keep the company's economy stable.

My understanding is that it is fair, except: when certain holidays arrive and certain employees are not allowed to take holidays and overtime is also not counted, that is indeed unfair, but if the holiday arrangements are appropriate for the company's employees, I think it is fair and where employees who work overtime can add economic value to their income.

If an employee is working overtime, that overtime should be paid. Businesses that exploit labor do not pay their employees for extra work for many different reasons. Some businesses do not realize that when they do not pay, their employees become less committed to their workplace. An employee's commitment to the business decreases, which affects production and profitability. Some details, although they may seem small, are important to a business and can affect the future of the business.

Businesses that value their employees for good and fair purposes always provide more from their employees. As the company's economy becomes more stable, both the business and the employees benefit. When employees see that their rights are being met, their trust in the business increases. Employees' commitment to the business is an important element for the future of some businesses; in order to ensure this commitment, it is necessary to give the employee their rights.
