What it does
The Holiday Pay Act would amend the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 to require employers to pay employees at least one and one-half times their regular rate for work performed on any legal public holiday, as defined by federal law. It affects employees engaged in commerce or the production of goods for commerce, and employers in enterprises involved in such activities. The bill also updates related provisions to include legal public holiday compensation in overtime calculations, enforcement mechanisms, exemptions, and interactions with state and local laws that may require higher holiday pay.
