The Friday after Thanksgiving

ljohnson · August 2004

We just implemented a similar policy. Do you allow exceptions if employees can produce a doctor's note or such?

System · August 2004

No. The only exception would be FML. However, if they bring a doctor's note, they can be paid sick time for the holiday.

mwild31 · August 2004

Yes, we allow folks to use a sick day if they want to. "Sick" days were reclassified by us to Sick/Personal days. Also, our holiday eligiblity for pay is different from yours. As long as someone has worked during the pay period or has used either their vacation or sick/personal days during the pay period, they are paid for the holiday.

It's a paid holiday for us.

We have 6 paid holidays per year. The Friday after Thanksgiving is not one of them. Employees may use a paid vacation day.

DianeZ · August 2004

We close down the Thursday and Friday of Thanksgiving week. Our 10 hour shift staff (Monday through Thursday) have Thursday as Thanksgiving holiday and are not scheduled for Friday. Our five 8 hours shift staff have Thursday as Thanksgiving Holiday and Friday as a floating holiday. Our three 12 hour shift staff (weekends - Friday, Saturday and Sunday) have off Friday as their Thanksgiving holiday.

The day after Thanksgiving is a paid holiday for our staff, referred to as "Family Day". It is one of our 11 paid holidays. No floating holiday.

That Friday is a fixed paid holiday now, since UPS no longer picks up ground (mail order company)

Friday is a paid holiday. We use a floating holiday at Christmas - New years.

We show the day after Thanksgiving as a paid holiday. We are closed Christmas Eve this year and and l/2 on New Year's Eve - paid holidays.

Beave · August 2004

The day after Thanksgiving is one of our paid (13) holidays. This applies to both union and non-union employees. We have no floating holidays.

turbo · August 2004

Unbelievable as it may sound. The company I work for - that doesn't offer many benefits, vacation days or any personal days or floating days - does give the day after Thanksgiving off.

It will however not give two days this year at Christmas - just the Friday that is Christmas Eve.

Not New year's Eve ever.

Tish · August 2004

We get the day off as a scheduled holiday.
