Fourth of July Holiday Practices
This is one of those years when companies have to consider their options when planning the Fourth of July Holiday. Since the holiday falls on a Tuesday this year, some employers will be giving Monday and Tuesday off, while others will be giving only Tuesday off. This survey from my buddies at HRNY (the SHRM Chapter in New York City) shows that:
- 45.9 percent of respondents will give both Monday and Tuesday off
- 54.1 percent of respondents will be giving just Tuesday off
So, let me guess how many people required to work on Monday will really be working hard.....
The results of the HRNY Fourth of July Holiday Survey can also be found on their website.
