Lucky you.  Poor nanny. [/quote]

Eh. 
1. Our nanny is not American and does not care about Thanksgiving.
2.  We give two other consecutive days off when we're home.[/quote]

You owe her more than two consecutive days, PP.  Thanksgiving is a national holiday where all her friends and family will be off work.  Celebrating the actual holiday or not, she deserves more compensation for being away on a major holiday. [/quote]

We'll have to agree to disagree.  I'm right of course, but you're entitled to your wrong opinion.  Our nanny's family is not from this country so "family will be off work" is inaccurate.  The nanny will get two work days off that come up against a weekend so they get four days total, just not right now.  This was spelled out in our contract, which the nanny reviewed and signed.

Are you paying time and a half for Thanksgiving?  NP here and only if you are are you right.  [b]The days are not legally interchangeable[/b].  [/quote]

NP here. It isn't a legal right to have Thanksgiving off - you realize that; right? [/quote]

It’s a national holiday.  Right or not a right, it’s still time-and-a-half.  (Which we all know this MB is not paying). [/quote]

Overtime applies when actually working 40 hours a week. Some employment contracts may specify an “overtime rate” when working a holiday. But there is no legal entitlement to it.[/quote]
