Daily rate = monthly salary × 12 ÷ 261 (Monday–Friday schedule). "+" is the extra over an ordinary workday.
Example: ₱20,000 a month
Daily rate: ₱20,000 × 12 ÷ 261 = ₱920. Work Rizal Day for 8 hours and you get ₱920 × 200% = ₱1,839, which is ₱920 more than an ordinary day. Don't work it and you still get ₱920. Two hours of overtime add ₱598.
Monthly-paid vs daily-paid
Monthly-paid: your salary already covers the holiday when you don't work. If you do work, the holiday premium is added on top: +100% of your daily rate. Daily-paid: you are paid per day, so you get 100% for not working (if present the workday before) and 200% for working.
