How do I calculate Hourly Holiday Pay?
Per the Chancellor's Office HR/Leaves 2002-01 Technical Letter: An hourly employee that is paid an hourly or daily equivalent of a monthly salary rate is entitled to holiday pay for each holiday in accordance with the following table which reflects proportional holiday pay based on the relationship of total hours worked in the holiday pay period to total hours in that pay period:
| Hours on Pay Status During Pay Period ** | Holiday Pay in Hours for Each Holiday |
|---|---|
| 0 – 10.9 | 0 |
| 11 – 30.9 | 1 |
| 31 – 50.9 | 2 |
| 51 – 70.9 | 3 |
| 71 – 90.9 | 4 |
| 91 – 110.9 | 5 |
| 111 – 130.9 | 6 |
| 131 – 150.9 | 7 |
| 151 or over | 8 |
**Exclusive of Holiday Hours not actually worked
Intermittent employees paid an hourly equivalent of a monthly salary rate receive time off with pay for a Personal Holiday, based on the number of hours worked in the pay period in which the personal holiday is taken as noted in the table above. When computing Personal Holiday pay eligibility, if an employee actually worked on other holidays in the same pay period, such hours worked are considered as hours on pay status. Personal Holiday credit not used within the calendar year will be forfeited.
If the status of an employee changes during the pay period, e.g., from fulltime to hourly, all time worked during the pay period is taken into consideration in computing holiday pay.
When an hourly employee moves from one appointing authority to another within the same pay period, e.g., from Campus A to Campus B, each appointing authority will consider only those hours worked and the holidays that occurred during employment in that institution in determining the amount of holiday pay due. The computation of holiday pay provides that no more than eight hours are paid to an employee for any one holiday.
An hourly employee does not receive holiday pay if the effective date of the appointment follows the holiday, or if the employee separated during the pay period, unless the employee worked either on or after the holiday, or the holiday falls within the pay period covered by a lump-sum payment for vacation or extra hours.
