All my closed days are clearly written at the top of my contract and when I write a letter to my dcparents in Dec. to advise them of my closed vacation days for the next year I remind them to check the contract for my closed days that their employer may not recognize as stat days. I do this as a courtesy for my clients so that when their employers ask them what days they want to book off the next year they can also book off my closed paid days as needed.
Hi Momof4, I don't take Christmas Eve off, but I would like to and I would like it to be paid. I currently have in my contract that I close all stat holidays and I expect full payment. How do you word that day in your contract? Do you just call them holidays (instead of stat holidays and the include it)?
