Question
Shalom and blessings. As part of the “Shaagat HaAri” program, the parents pay a fixed monthly fee, so that vacation days and holidays are also included in the payment. In a month in which I did not work at all because of the instructions of the Ministry of Education and the Home Front Command, should I ask for only 50% payment also for the vacation days (Purim and Pesach), or is it permitted to ask for full payment for the vacation days, and reduce by 50% only for the days on which I would actually have been supposed to work were it not for these instructions?
Answer
Shalom and blessings.
Full payment should be taken, because the vacation pay is not payment for that specific day, but an additional payment spread over all the days of the year as a whole.
