| If non-teaching staff members work a holiday where classes are in session, a compensatory day is earned or paid. |
| UUP Employees with a teaching appointment are required to work on all days that classes are in session. They are not eligible to accrue holidays. |
| Under the Attendance Rules, when a holiday falls on a Saturday, a holiday compensatory day is earned. In the case of employees whose regularly scheduled workday is Saturday, they shall observe the holiday on that actual date. |
| The State has designated Election Day and Lincoln's Birthday to be observed as floating holidays in 2024/25 by employees in the Management/Confidential, CSEA (Administrative, Operational, Institutional), and PEF (Professional, Scientific and Technical Services) bargaining units. Classes are in session on Election Day and Lincoln's Birthday; therefore, College offices will remain open and an extra day will be earned by employees in those bargaining units. |
| The College President has designated Election Day and Lincoln's Birthday to be observed as floating holidays by UUP. UUP employees will observe Election Day on the day after Thanksgiving, and Lincoln's Birthday may be celebrated at the employee's discretion with the advance approval of the area supervisor and consistent with the operating needs of the College. |
