State Holidays in March

[scrivener]

Hey. Any state employees out there? What's the state doing about the fact that Prince Kuhio Day and Good Friday fall on the same day this year?

From what I can find, they're just out of luck (http://www.state.hi.us/hrd/holidays.html). One less holiday this year, thanks to that darn moon. Or something.

You guys are lucky to have all those extra holidays. For the company I work for, our next major holiday would be in May, Memorial Day. Of course, our last major holiday was in January, so that pretty much leaves no time off from January until May.

What they did for this year is that we can choose the second holiday on any day within reason. Just need to fill out the leave form and put in a special code for that 2nd holiday.

The union negotiated separate holidays for its members. The Kuhio Day holiday will be observed this friday and the Good Friday holiday will be taken as a "floating" holiday. Each state department (or division, work unit, etc) can decide when to take the holiday as long it is falls within this calendar year.
