Re: labor laws-holiday pay
There are no state or federal laws that require employers to pay you time and a half for working on holidays. It is usually an agreement that employers and employees have. 1 and 1/2 rate of pay is required for certain employees eligible for overtime wages after working in excess of 40 hours in a workweek.
I hope this helps. If you have any other questions please feel free to contact me again.
