CITY OF SAN FERNANDO–The Department of Labor and Employment has issued implementing guidelines for Proclamation No. 459 which lists regular holidays including special holidays this 2013 and their corresponding salary computations.
Labor Secretary Rosalinda Dimapilis-Baldoz promulgated the implementing guidelines on Wednesday.
On August 2012, President Benigno Aquino III issued Proclamation No. 459 consistent with the laws of the Philippines governing the observance of holidays, to wit: Republic Act (RA) No. 9492, dated 24 July 2007, which amended Section 26, Chapter 7, Book I of Executive Order (EO) No. 292, also known as the Administrative Code of 1987, by declaring certain days, specific or movable, as special or regular holidays.
By virtue of Proclamation No. 459, there are 10 regular holidays, seven special non-working days, and one special holiday for all schools for the year 2013, as follows: regular holidays–New Year’s Day, January 1 (Tuesday); Maundy Thursday, March 28; Good Friday, March 29; Araw ng Kagitingan, April 9 (Tuesday); Labor Day, May 1 (Wednesday); Independence Day, June 12 (Wednesday); National Heroes Day, August 26 (Last Monday of August); Bonifacio Day, November 30 (Saturday); Christmas Day, December 25 (Wednesday); and Rizal Day, December 30 (Monday).

Special holiday (for all schools) include EDSA Revolution Anniversary, February 25 (Monday).
Secretary Baldoz said President Aquino III affirmed Black Saturday, together with November 2, and December 24, 2013, as additional special non-working days nationwide, citing the need to enable the Filipino people to observe their most cherished traditions, Holy Week, All Saints Day, and Christmas, “without prejudice to the public interest.”
In addition, Section 2 of Proclamation No. 459 provides that “the proclamations declaring national holidays for the observance of Eid’l Fitr and Eidul Adha shall hereafter be issued after the approximate dates of the Islamic Holidays have been determined in accordance with the Islamic calendar (Hijra) or the lunar calendar, or upon Islamic astronomical calculations, whichever is possible or convenient.”
“To this end, the National Commission on Muslim Filipinos (NCMF) shall inform the Office of the President on which day the holiday shall fall,” the proclamation further provides.
