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 workweeks of December 20 - 26 and January 3 - 9 based on the amount of holiday pay they will receive.
Reporting Winter Break, Christmas, and New Year's Day Holidays:

1. DO NOT ENTER TIME FOR THE HOLIDAY for A&P, AEX, USPS, or Faculty employees using the elapsed timesheet.

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

* To generate Pay at the Straight-time Rate - enter REGHP for hours over 40.
Other Types of Leave
Employees on Workers' Compensation
