My work week is Tuesday through Saturday in california. My work decided to let us have Xmas eve and new years eve off because both the actual holidays were on our normal day off. The problem is that because these weren't recognized holidays they will both be unpaid. I'm all for a three day weekend but I also have bills to pay. I know cali doesn't require byisness to be closed or to pay extra to work on holidays but I can't find anything that relates to my specific situation. Does any one know if a buisness decides to close for an unrecognized holiday during a normal work day, would they need to pay out for that?
