Attendance at Work Before a Holiday. All scheduled employees must work the day prior to and the day following paid holidays in order to be paid for said holiday. Documentation from a physician or other reasonable explanation may be provided for an excused absence at the sole discretion of the Employer. Pre-approved employer paid vacation or other employer paid leaves will be exempt from this Article. No Holiday pay will be issued for employees on unpaid leaves of absence. If an employee is on a reduced work schedule due to illness or injury, holiday pay will be based on the percentage of total time the employee has worked for the (2) pay periods directly preceding the holiday. The employee must attend work on the day before or after the holiday as stated above.
