4.5.1 When an eligible employee is called back to work or scheduled and required to work on an actual or designated holiday, that employee will receive the holiday Premium Pay for the hours physically worked on that day plus Holiday Pay for up to 12 hours. Holiday premium pay is limited to either the actual or the designated holiday, but not both. If an employee is required to work on both the actual and the designated Holiday, the employee will select one of the two days as the holiday and will receive the holiday Premium Pay for the hours physically worked on that day plus regular pay for that day. The employee will receive only regular pay for the other day. Temporary Full Time, Temporary Part Time, and Regular Part Time employees who are required to work on a holiday shall be paid at their normal rate for the work performed. In lieu of holiday premium pay and in addition to regular pay for hours worked, Department Directors may authorize additional time off at time-and-one-half when requested by the employee. Such authorization would be granted only if adequate staffing to carry out normal operations could be provided. 5.1 An employee who has children in school may take up to four hours of unpaid leave each year to be involved with the school.
