Information for Employees on July 4, 2020 Holiday

We have been advised by the Governor’s Office of Employee Relations that another day will not be designated to be observed as a holiday by State employees in lieu of July 4, 2020.

Full-time employees who are entitled to observe holidays, and are not scheduled to work on Saturday, July 4, will be credited with holiday compensatory time after July 4, 2020. 

Employees who are regularly scheduled to work on Saturdays will observe Saturday July 4 as a holiday unless they are required to work.  If an employee is required to work on Saturday, July 4, 2020, he or she will either receive paid holiday pay or granted holiday compensatory time off (holiday leave), as appropriate.

Part-time employees who are eligible to observe holidays are entitled to observe only those holidays that fall on days when they are regularly scheduled to work or actually do work.  However, eligible part-time employees who are scheduled to work at least half-time, and who do not work on Saturday, July 4, but who are regularly scheduled to work on Friday, July 3, will be credited with holiday leave equivalent to the number of hours in the employee’s regular Friday schedule.
