Hi all,
I am the HR Generalist in my company based in Sydney,Australia and we have an office in Noida. Does anyone have a list of public holidays that they recognise for 2017 that you wouldn't mind sharing?
I want to ensure my staff in India get the right amount of public holidays and are in line with best practices with other companies based in India.
Thank you,
Juhi
