Holidays.

The University recognizes certain days of historic importance as holidays and pays employees for time off on these days in accordance with special eligibility rules. If the University institutes a paid time-off during the Christmas season or for Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday, bargaining unit employees will be included.

An employee will be paid for each holiday provided that the employee has one day of compensation in the week of the holiday, except for those employees in units that are non-operational between Christmas and New Year's. For 9 and 10 month employees, holiday pay is only available during their appointment period.

Holidays during vacation or sick leave are not counted as part of vacation or sick leave time.

The paid Holiday schedule for 2010-2011 is as follows:

Labor Day	Monday, September 6, 2010
K-Day (1/2 day)	Friday, September 10, 2010
Thanksgiving	Thursday, November 25, & Friday, November 26, 2010
Christmas	Thursday, December 23, & Friday, December 24, 2010
New Year's	Thursday, December 30, 2010 & Friday, December 31, 2010
Good Friday (1/2 day)	Friday, April 22, 2011
Memorial Day	Monday, May 30, 2011
Fourth of July	Monday, July 4, 2011

Time and one-half will be paid for all time worked on a designated holiday. If the employee is not given an additional day off within the pay period to replace the holiday, the employee will receive holiday pay in addition to the time and one-half for the time worked.

Those employees who are required to work the legal holiday will be paid the holiday pay rate. If the designated holiday is also worked, those employees will be paid at straight time.
