Two Personal Floating Holidays
(See description below)
When a holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the preceding Friday or following
Monday is a holiday for employees whose normal work schedule is Monday through
Friday.
Non-union employees who work a holiday will be paid time and one-half employee's
regular pay rate for all hours worked in addition to straight compensatory time off for
the holiday.
Station Service Officers are allowed to bank holiday hours due to the nature of their
position. Employees shall receive eight hours of holiday leave per month. Ninety-six
hours of holiday leave shall be advanced to employees on January 1 of each calendar
year. In the event an employee is not employed for the entire calendar year the
employee's holiday leave shall be reduced by eight hours for each full month that the
employee will not have worked in that calendar year. Any holiday leave not used on
or before December 31' of each year will be deemed forfeited and shall not carry over
into the next calendar year.
Employees may observe a religious holiday on days which do not fall on Sunday or a
legal holiday. Observance of such a religious holiday must be taken off without pay
except where the employee has accumulated vacation and in that case such religious
holidays may be charged against such leave accumulations at the option of the
employee.
Employees who are in collective bargaining must check their agreements and follow
contract language for holiday schedules.
In order to be paid for holiday leave, the benefit earning employee must be working or
using vacation, sick or other approved paid leave on both the day before and after the
holiday.
