Juneteenth. (c) When December 25 and January 1 fall on Sundays and are observed as State holidays on the following Mondays, employees whose work schedule includes December 25 and/or January 1 shall observe the holiday on those dates, or if required to work, may receive additional compensation or compensatory time off in accordance with Section 7.14 of this Agreement. In such event, for these employees, December 26 and January 2 will not be considered holidays.
(d) The State, at its option, may designate up to two floating holidays in each contract year (April-March) in lieu of two of the holidays set forth in Article 12.1(b), such that employees shall have the opportunity to select, on an individual basis, the dates upon which such floating holidays will be observed by them, consistent with the reasonable operating needs of the State. The State’s designation of the holidays to be floated shall be announced in April of the contract year. Employees shall be credited with up to 7½ or 8 hours of floating holiday leave credits as appropriate. If an employee’s basic work week changes from 37½ hours to 40 hours, or 40 to 37½ hours, any floating holiday leave credit balance will be adjusted to reflect the new workweek. Floating holiday leave credits may be used in such units of time as the appointing authority may approve, but the appointing authority shall not require that floating holiday leave credits be used in units greater than one-quarter hour. This provision shall not supersede any local arrangements which provide for liquidation in smaller units of time.
