[HR Important Message]

An important message from FSU Office of Human Resources

This message has been approved by Christine Conley, Director of Benefits & Leave, for distribution to all Department Representatives.

Department Representatives and Supervisors: Please read the following message in its entirety.

The Labor Day holiday will be observed on Monday, September 2, 2024.

To be paid for the holiday, USPS, A&P, Executive Service (AEX), and Faculty employees should be in pay status (either working or on approved leave) for at least a portion of the scheduled workday before the holiday.

  *   Full-time employees receive 8 hours of leave for holidays. Part-time employees receive a proportionate number of holiday leave hours based on their FTE.
     *   Example - While a 1.0 FTE employee gets 8 hours of paid holiday leave for each day, a 0.75 FTE employee would get 6 hours of paid holiday leave.
  *   If you have employees on alternate schedules (full-time or part-time), they should be advised in advance to work the appropriate hours for the workweek of August 30, 2024 - September 5, 2024, based on the amount of holiday leave they receive for the holiday.

Reporting the Labor Day holiday for the workweek of August 30 - September 5:

Elapsed Timesheet

  1.  DO NOT ENTER TIME FOR THE HOLIDAY for A&P, AEX, USPS, or Faculty employees using the elapsed timesheet.
  2.  The OMNI HR elapsed timesheet will show no hours (blank) for September 2. The holiday hours will be added automatically by the system. See the example below:

OPS Employees
OPS employees are not eligible to receive holiday pay.

  *   OPS Nonexempt Employees (paid for time worked) do not receive holiday pay. Only the hours worked should be reported on the timesheet.

  *   OPS Exempt Employees (Grad Assistants/Adjuncts/OPS Faculty) do not report time on their timesheets. If the employee is funded during the holiday, the system will generate pay based on their appointment.

Compensatory Leave
For full-time USPS or A&P employees who worked on the holiday and/or beyond the required number of hours for the workweek, the Time Reporting Code of "Straight Time Comp Earned - REGCE" should be reported as described in the following scenarios:
A&P Exempt
*         Use "Straight-Time Comp Earned - REGCE" if the employee worked on the holiday (September 2) and worked more than the required 32 hours during the holiday workweek (8 hours maximum REGCE allowed).
USPS Nonexempt
*         Use "Straight-Time Comp Earned - REGCE" if the employee worked more than the required 32 hours during the holiday workweek (8 hours maximum REGCE allowed).
If an employee physically worked more than 40 hours during the holiday workweek, do one of the following:

  *   To generate Overtime Comp Leave Earned - enter OTCCE for hours over 40.
  *   To generate Overtime Pay - enter either OVHHP or REGHP for hours over 40.

USPS Exempt
*         Use "Straight-Time Comp Earned - REGCE" if the employee worked more than the required 32 hours during the holiday workweek (8 hours maximum REGCE allowed).
If an employee physically worked more than 40 hours during the holiday workweek, do one of the following:

  *   To generate Straight-time Comp Leave Earned - enter REGCE for hours over 40.
  *   To generate Pay at the Straight-time Rate - enter REGHP for hours over 40.

Other Types of Leave

Employees on Workers' Compensation

Since most of these employees receive Workers' Compensation payment for approximately 2/3 of their wages, their holiday pay should be proportional (approximately 1/3). The Workers' Compensation and the holiday amounts must be reported on the timesheet.
