Moreover, the companies have been given the right to reduce the work hours and the salaries of their employees. However, the reduction in salary must be in proportion to the reduced working hours. In addition, the employer can’t terminate any employee. But an employee can ask for the end of the contract.
Furthermore, the company can send his employees to annual leaves, or emergency leaves without pay. The employee can also ask for the leaves. The purpose of the move is to protect the economic circle by putting the least burden on the employer and the employees in the days of Corona Disease.
