Question
Hello and blessings. I work as a secretary at a health clinic, and I have run out of vacation days for this year. The management approved my leave during Chol HaMoed, but I will lose money if I do not work. Is it permissible for me to work, and is it allowed from the outset? Thank you.
Answer
Hello and blessings. It is permissible to work in this job from the outset during Chol HaMoed, as it is necessary for public needs.
