[quote=Anonymous]As a private employer, you are not legally required to observe federal holidays and provide paid time off (only federal employees are guaranteed paid time on federal holidays). However, many private employers observe certain federal holidays, and as noted above, generally, the practice is to negotiate certain holidays in writing with your nanny. We have a written policy with our nanny regarding which federal holidays she has off. Fair Labor Standards Act does not require employers to pay time and a half or any other premium rate for working on a federal holiday (although a few states do but DC does not), but if working on a federal holiday means she is working more than 40/hours a week, than she would be owed overtime pay.
