What you need to know about Public Holidays on the Remote platform

Public holidays are not automatically added to an employee's Time Off records and therefore, we recommend that employees always request the public holidays that they wish to take, as a Time Off request, as is outlined here. 

This will enable us to work with accurate data and effectively process payroll.
