# Policies

Applying holiday policies.

In the **Policies** tab of the **Holidays** page, you select which days of the week are considered non-working days.

Next, you have the following two options for [Hourly and Salary](https://docs.mobiclocks.com/docs/creating-a-new-employee#step-7-select-a-pay-group) employees:

* **Auto-apply Holiday Policy**. If activated, the system automatically applies an 8-hour [timelog entry](https://docs.mobiclocks.com/docs/timelogs) for all the empty timelogs on a holiday and generates a \[HOL] [pay ID](https://docs.mobiclocks.com/docs/pay-id). If the setting is not activated, you can perform the same action manually, using the [Set Holiday Leave](https://docs.mobiclocks.com/docs/editing-timelog#holiday-actions) timelog action on the timelog.
* **Apply Holiday Work Policy**. If activated, it is possible to account for cases when an employee has worked on a holiday and mark those days under the \[HOL\_WORK]\[HOL\_WORK] [pay ID](https://docs.mobiclocks.com/docs/pay-id). The entry will be marked as holiday work automatically if the employee punches on that day, and it's also possible to add an entry manually using the [Set Holiday Work Time](https://docs.mobiclocks.com/docs/editing-timelog#holiday-actions)  timelog action.
