§ 244.09 HOLIDAYS; PERSONAL LEAVE DAYS.
   (a)   Each full-time employee shall receive the regular wage rate per hour, not to exceed eight hours, times the number of hours in the employee’s normal work day, for each of the following named holidays, provided that employees worked the last and next scheduled work day, or is on an approved leave. Employees using sick leave on either the last or next scheduled work day shall provide a doctor’s verification of illness to receive holiday pay. This additional amount shall be paid regardless of the employee being scheduled off on the holiday.
      (1)   Paid holidays are New Year’s Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, the Friday following Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve.
      (2)   For work performed on a holiday, the employee shall be paid an additional one and one-half times the regular hourly rate, which hourly rate is established by dividing the employee’s base annual salary by 2,080. Thus, an employee working on a holiday will receive the regular hourly wage plus time and one-half the regular hourly wage (i.e. two one-half times the rate per hour).
   (b)   Each full-time employee is entitled to three personal leave days with pay, to be used at the discretion of the employee, with the approval of the supervisor. The supervisor must be notified of a personal leave day at least three working days prior to the date desired to be taken as a personal leave day.
