Following a federal declaration, University of Nebraska regular employees will be granted a paid holiday on Dec. 24.
The change was announced Dec. 17 after Pres. Donald Trump issued an executive order to close all agencies and units of the federal government on Dec. 24.
State law provides that when the president gives federal employees paid time off, the State of Nebraska shall grant the same benefits to state employees. Gov. Pete Ricketts also has announced that Nebraska state government agencies will be closed on Dec. 24.
University employees should contact department/unit time coordinators for instructions on posting leave or correcting leave entries. Corrections to holiday leave entries can be made in January 2020.
