University Holiday |
Univ Closed Employees Use Leave* |
University Open |
(Weekend) |
* University closed; employees use annual leave, bonus leave, comp time, or floating holiday. If leave is not available for use, pay will be reduced for overdrawn leave.
Employees who earn leave also receive one floating holiday in 2008 in addition to the scheduled closings. The floating holiday must be used during the current calendar year and scheduled with supervisory approval.
Some employees must work on holidays/closings to meet operational needs. To confirm that additional compensation is applicable, review information on the additional compensation process.
Employees may ask to take leave for major religious observances. Supervisors must arrange work schedules so the employees can take leave if the day is a major religious observance for them and the leave does not create an emergency situation in the department
The State authorizes 11 holidays in years where Christmas falls on a Fri, Sat, Sun, or Mon, and 12 holidays in years when Christmas falls on a Tues, Wed, or Thurs. The campuses of the University of North Carolina system observe the same total number of holidays as those provided to other State agencies. However, each campus sets its own specific holiday/closing schedule based on institutional needs.
Questions concerning holidays/closings should be directed to Employment Services at 919-515-2135.
