The total number of paid holidays for the fiscal year 2008-2009
is 13 1/2.
Employees may choose an additional two (2) days as paid holidays.
These days may be either Federal, State, religious or any other
day(s) the employee may choose to be approved by the Academic Chair
or Department Head. Because of varied religious practices of Mount
Holyoke College's employees, Academic Chairs and Department Heads
are encouraged to approve employee requests for time off for the
observance of the religious holidays or practices.
The College will permit some additional flexibility to offices
during the workdays between Christmas and New Years holidays. The
College will not officially close during this period; however, individual
offices may close if operational needs permit, and if all members
of the office wish to take the time off. (e.g.: vacation, floating
holiday)
*On these holidays, certain offices or departments may have
to remain open even if operating at a reduced staff. An employee
required to work on such a holiday will be given another day off
with pay in lieu of that holiday, such day to be approved by the
Academic Chair or Department Head.
