Section 284.255 - Holidays: Holiday pay
Current through September 16, 2024
1. For the purpose of this section, "holiday pay" means payment for a holiday at a nonexempt employee's normal rate of pay plus the differential rate of pay for the shift, when applicable, or compensatory time at a straight-time rate.
2. Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c) of subsection 3 and subsections 5 and 7, a full-time nonexempt employee whose base hours are 40 hours per week or 80 hours biweekly is entitled to receive 8 hours of holiday pay for any holiday that he or she is in paid status during any portion of his or her shift immediately preceding the holiday.
3. Except as otherwise provided in subsections 5 and 7:
4. If a holiday occurs on the regularly scheduled workday of a nonexempt employee and his or her normal schedule of work is more than 8 hours, he or she must be in paid status or be placed on leave without pay for any difference between his or her holiday pay and his or her normal work schedule. An appointing authority may adjust the work schedule of such an employee for the week during which the holiday occurs in lieu of placing the employee on paid leave or leave without pay.
5. A nonexempt employee who is scheduled to work on a holiday shall report any absence from duty and the reason therefor to his or her supervisor or designated representative as prescribed in writing by the agency. An employee who does not work on that holiday and who fails to report his or her absence to his or her supervisor or a designated representative pursuant to this subsection is not eligible to receive holiday pay.
6. A nonexempt employee whose employment begins on a holiday is eligible to receive holiday pay pursuant to subsections 2 and 3 if he or she is in paid status during his or her scheduled shift.
7. A nonexempt employee whose employment is terminated:
8. The agency that lists a nonexempt employee as an "employee of record" on a holiday is responsible for the payment of holiday pay for that holiday to that employee. For the purposes of this subsection, an "employee of record" is a person employed by the state agency that is required to claim the person as an employee of the agency.
9. The salary of an exempt classified or exempt unclassified employee is not affected by a holiday.
