S.C. Code Regs. 19-708.03 - HOLIDAY OBSERVANCE PROCEDURE
A.
Holidays are to be taken on the prescribed day unless the agency requires the
employee to work. The agency shall give employees who must work on holidays
prior notice if possible.
B. When a
holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday, it shall be observed on the preceding
Friday or the following Monday, respectively, by employees working a Monday
through Friday schedule. Employees shall observe the holiday on the designated
day or receive holiday compensatory time.
C. Employees in FTE positions who do not work
a normal Monday through Friday workweek shall receive no more nor any fewer
number of holidays than those employees who work the normal Monday through
Friday workweek.
D. The length of
an employee's holiday is computed based on the number of hours in the
employee's average workday. To determine the number of hours in a holiday,
divide the total number of hours an employee is regularly scheduled to work
during a week by five (regardless of the number of days the employee actually
reports to work).
E. When a holiday
falls during a period of leave with pay, that day will be counted as a holiday,
not as a day of leave.
F. Employees
who are on leave without pay the day before a holiday shall not be paid or
receive holiday compensatory time for holidays falling during this period of
leave without pay.
G. The holiday
schedules of public colleges and universities, including technical colleges,
shall not be in violation of this regulation so long as the number of holidays
provided in this regulation are not exceeded.
