It depends where you work. It is not a "public holiday" , in the building business it is a "jour chomé" which means it's a non-paid holiday. I think this goes back to when workers had the right to protest on the 1st May.

It's a day off in public administration (incl schools), but not for the rest, so shops etc. are open.

It used to be a half hooliday in Zurich but I don't know about now. However, I do remember once being paid double time because I agreed to work on the afternoon of May Day. I had to walk all the way home though because the trams weren't running so some of my hard-earned cash went on shoe repairs.

They don't have the right to protest anymore?
