Election Day related: Time Off to Vote
(a) The Governor’s Office of Employee Relations has notified all state agencies that floating holidays have been designated in lieu of fixed holidays for Election Day and Lincoln’s Birthday for all employees except those represented by PBANYS. UUP-represented employees observe Election Day on the day after Thanksgiving. Employees eligible to observe the holidays will be credited with a floating holiday and may arrange with their supervisors to use the credit on a date of their choice before the holiday recurs. For Security Services Unit employees who are eligible to observe holidays, Election Day and Lincoln's Birthday will be observed as fixed holidays. When such employees are required to work on these holidays, their benefits will be determined in the same manner as is currently followed for other holidays on which they are required to work.
(b) Under the Attendance Rules when a holiday falls on a Sunday it is observed on the following Monday.
