The OP recalled the employee's right to refuse to work during the New Year holidays

An employer does not have the right to force an employee to go to work during the New Year holidays. Evgeny Masharov, a member of the commission of the Public Chamber of the Russian Federation for the public examination of draft laws and other regulations, told about this on December 13.

"An employer does not have the right to call an employee to work on holidays only if they wish to. In order for an employee to work on a day off, it is necessary to obtain his consent, except in exceptional cases (justification: parts 2, 3, 5 of art. 113, part 1 of art. 290 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). If an employee refuses to work, then the employer has no right to force him," TASS quoted him as saying.
