Remote People upholds best practices for working hours in Thailand to ensure both compliance with local labor laws and employee satisfaction:
The standard working hours are set at 8 hours per day and 40 hours per week.
Employees are entitled to a minimum break of 1 hour for every 5 hours of work to maintain productivity and well-being.
For overtime, employees can work a maximum of 36 hours per week, but this is only permissible with prior written consent from the employee. Overtime compensation is structured to reward additional work fairly:
During regular working days, employees receive 150% of their regular salary.
If overtime occurs on weekends, the pay increases to 200%.
Working on public holidays is compensated at 300% of the normal salary.
By implementing these practices, Remote People aims to foster a balanced work environment and ensure fair treatment of all employees.
