Legal Holiday Schedule

*When a legal holiday falls on a Saturday, eligible employees are granted eight hours of floating legal holiday (pro-rated for part-time).

**When a legal holiday falls on a Sunday, the legal holiday is observed and UW-Madison is closed on the Monday following.

Due to varying business needs throughout UW, some employees may be required to work on a legal holiday. Employees who are required to work on a legal holiday, or if the legal holiday is on an employee’s regularly scheduled day off, will be granted a floating legal holiday. Please contact Waisman Human Resources in these situations at hr@waisman.wisc.edu.
