The Village observes the following regular paid holidays per year: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Jr., Presidents Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving Day and the Friday after, Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
If a recognized holiday falls on a Saturday, the holiday will be observed on the Friday proceeding. If the holiday falls on a Sunday, the holiday will be observed on the Monday following. Holidays will not be recognized for both the Friday and Monday when the Holiday falls on a weekend day.
All full-time employees who do not work on said holiday shall receive pay for that holiday, at their regular rate of pay. When a full-time employee works on a paid holiday as provided in this section, such employee shall be paid the equivalent of sixteen (16) hours of straight time pay for eight (8) hours of work that day.
If a recognized holiday falls during an eligible employee's paid absence (such as a vacation day or sick day), the absence for the day will be counted as holiday pay and not against the paid time off.
To be eligible for holiday-pay, a full-time employee who does not have prior approval for his/her absence from the Mayor or immediate supervisor, must work the employee's last scheduled day prior to, and the next scheduled day subsequent to, the holiday.
