A new public holiday for South Africa
South African President Cyril Ramaphosa announced December 15, 2023, as a public holiday to commemorate the Springboks’ historic triumph as well as the achievements of all our other athletes. Click here to access the President’s announcement.
What effect will this have on your business procedures and employees:
- The public holiday calendar will be amended on Friday, November 3, 2023, at 08:00 to include the 15th of December 2023 as a public holiday.
- All leave transactions logged before this time and date will not be automatically updated and will require manual intervention in the form of an adjustment to give the employees a day back in terms of their balance.
- Before updating the system with the new public holiday, you should run the most current leave transaction report. If you cannot run the report in time, please ensure that only transactions approved before Friday, November 3rd are modified.
