When Will You Receive Your 2024 Eid Holiday Allowance? Check Out the Government Rules Below

Eid al-Fitr, or Lebaran, is the long-awaited moment among employees for several reasons. Collective leave will be applied based on the government regulation on the Islamic holiday, allowing them to meet up with extended family, relatives, and friends.


It’s also time for them to receive a holiday allowance (Tunjangan Hari Raya or THR for short) from their company. The THR is an employee’s right and the employer’s obligation to provide it a few days before Lebaran.


Rules Regarding THR Payment

The obligation to pay THR to employees is regulated in Article 79 of Government Regulation (PP) Number 36 of 2021. This article also states that companies will be subject to sanctions if they do not provide THR to their workers.


The sanctions can vary and have several levels, ranging from warnings to operational suspensions. So, the company can’t take this obligation to provide THR lightly or avoid it for various reasons.


However, the amount of THR given can vary depending on the length of service of the employee concerned.

The regulation emphasizes that THR is given to workers who have worked at the company for at least one month or more, as well as workers who have an employment agreement with the employer for a temporary and permanent period.


For workers who have worked for 12 months or more, the THR they receive should equal one month’s salary. Meanwhile, for workers whose work period is less than 12 months, the amount they received is proportionally calculated according to the number of months they’ve worked divided by 12 months and multiplied by one month’s salary.


As for workers or laborers under the daily employment contract, their monthly salary is calculated based on the average wages received during the last 12 months before Eid al-Fitr.


If a daily worker has worked for less than 12 months, their monthly salary is calculated based on the average wages received each month during the work period.


THR Payment Date

It is determined that the THR is given to the employees no later than 4 days before Lebaran. However, most companies give it 10 days before the holiday comes.


The issue of allowance provision, while seemingly simple, can actually lead to disputes between employees and the company.
