Holiday Reminder – Memorial Day

Monday, May 29th is Memorial Day and all offices, sites, and the support office will be closed in observance of the holiday.

The Site Employee Resource Center will be closed in observance of the Holiday. However, Supervisors will be available via Mobile Phones if an emergency occurs.  If you are unable to reach your immediate supervisor in the event of an emergency, please contact Jeff Passadore at 503.702.0535 as a back-up.

As a reminder, if an employee’s regularly scheduled day off is Monday, then another day during the same pay period should be taken as the holiday.  The holiday should be listed with the appropriate number of hours on the time record – do not enter start and stop times (unless you are required to work on the holiday).  The ‘holiday’ category will auto-populate in your time sheet on 5/29 in Kronos; unless you are taking another day as the holiday, please leave this as-is.

Entering your holiday time correctly in Kronos:

  • Make sure the word “Holiday” appears in the ‘Time Off’ column on your time card (this may auto-populate).
  • Click the magnifying glass next to this field to select ‘Holiday’ if does show up as an option.
  • Do not enter start and stop times on a holiday unless you actually work that day; only enter the total holiday hours in the ‘raw total’ section for that day. 
  • Entering a start and stop time indicates that you have worked that day, please avoid this unless you actually work on Memorial Day.

If circumstances require that an employee works on the holiday, please follow these steps:

  • Still enter your holiday hours as indicated above in the raw total section.
  • On the line underneath (for the same day) add your actual hours worked that day.
  • This will make sure that you are paid holiday hours plus your hours worked.

Holiday Pay Eligibility:

  • Employees who work 20 or more hours per week are eligible for holiday pay.
  • To receive holiday pay the employee must work both the scheduled day prior and after a holiday; except if prior vacation was approved on those days. Please refer to your Employee Handbook for the number of hours paid out as holiday pay; it is based on your Employment Understanding.
