Puerto Rico Teachers to work on holiday

Teacher\'s Day in Puerto Rico is no longer a paid holiday for teachers.



The government has enforced a law designed to overcome a fiscal crisis.



Under the new law, at least 43,000 teachers will now have to work all commemorative days for the next two years, including the day that honours their profession.



Its not yet clear how the new move will help the country save money.



Teachers are among those exempt from a law seeking layoffs of 30,000 public workers to save $2 billion amid a $3.2 billion deficit.
