When public holiday falls on my rest day. Company not offer replacement off. What rate that I'm eligible to claim? Lately my company trying to cut down..they just paid 8hrs x 1.0.  (coz not on duty, cant calculate 12 hrs)

They used to paid 2.0 but lately keep telling us it's was wrong since day one. what a bullshit reason...So i would like to have a clear guideline.
This is the first time I've heard that a company pays 2X the pay when a public holiday falls on the employees' rest day.

Most service companies will pay 1.5 or 2X if you work on a public holiday. But you're not working. It's just that the public holiday falls on your rest day.

Imagine if Hari Raya falls on a Sunday. Don't tell me everyone gets paid double for working on Monday? Monday's not Hari Raya, no? The company is compensating you for not replacing your rest day on Monday. You already took the public holiday (Hari Raya on Sunday).

I means in shift working. Not normal office hr..
I don't think it matters. The company is still simply replacing a rest day, not asking you to work on a public holiday. Actually most companies just add 1 day to your annual leave.

As what i said, shift work mean you can't choose or get replacement rest due to shcedule has fixed.
exp :  05 Apr 09 (sunday) - Public holiday . --- Only normal office hr are getting replacement rest on Monday.
My duty schedule : Sunday (rest Day) , Monday (Morning shift).
But for those working on shift, they have to follow their duty schedule time but not calendar date. my jobs is in O&M field, need to cover 24 hrs. If everybody took the replacement rest on monday. Who will gonna work? You get what i mean?
Yes, I get what you mean.

At the end of the day, you lose one rest day. So the company compensates you for the one rest day lost... at 1X. In my opinion, that's correct.
