Public holiday surcharge: What employers need to know
Public holiday bonuses are a key issue for employers who deploy their employees on Sundays and public holidays. However, correct accounting is complex: while the Working Hours Act (ArbZG) prescribes compensation regulations, the exact surcharge rates are not defined by law, but depend on collective agreements or individual agreements.
With SaaS.de, these bonuses can be mapped easily and legally compliant - from automatic calculation and tax optimisation to audit-proof documentation.
This saves you time and avoids errors.
