Peru Confirms April 30 Civil Servants Bridge Holiday

Sources: Andina and Peru Public Holidays. The bridge holiday of Monday April 30, 2007, has been confirmed, affording Peruvian civil servants a 4-day public holiday, from Saturday April 28 to Tuesday May 1, 2007, inclusively. As set out originally, on August 22 of last year, when the 2007 series of bridge holidays was published in the Boletín de Normas Legales del Diario Oficial El Peruano, these bridge holidays are compulsory only for civil servants, but the private sector is encouraged to find agreements on a case-by-case basis, although if an agreement cannot be reached in a company, the management shall have the last word.
