Company Holiday Policy (United States)

This tool contains two policies that establish guidelines and procedures an organization can follow when defining employee eligibility for public holidays in the United States.

In these samples, to be eligible for holiday benefits an employee must be employed on the last scheduled workday before and the first scheduled workday after the holiday. If a holiday falls on a Sunday, it will be observed on the next Monday. If a holiday falls during an employee’s approved vacation period, the employee must be paid for the holiday and will not be charged with a vacation day for the day the holiday is observed.
