Eligible employees can use vacation, compensatory time or leave without pay to cover the three workdays during closure. If you haven’t accumulated enough vacation leave by December to cover those days, arrangements can be made to allow you to borrow against future vacation time.
Each department head may identify essential services that must be maintained during this period and plan for staffing accordingly.
