GENERAL HOLIDAYS Sample Clauses
The GENERAL HOLIDAYS clause defines how public or statutory holidays are treated within the context of the agreement.

This clause ensures that both parties have a clear understanding of their obligations and rights regarding holidays, preventing disputes over scheduling or payment related to these dates.
