What days is your employer closing for Christmas and New Years this year (2014) (pay, interest)

[Frihed89]

We are closed from Dec 24 until Jan 2, when we re-open. The joys of living and working in Denmark.

[BlueMountainFame1992]

None. If I would have stayed at this job, I would have been working either Christmas Eve or Day or New Years Eve or Day.

People had to be fed and waited on.

Remember not everyone works in a corporations. Nurses, aids, waitresses, cooks--they still go to work on holidays.

Schools are off nearly 2 weeks from Dec. 22 and go back Jan 5th.

You didn't list my answer, which is none. I work in front line healthcare - and hospitals never close. I'm personally taking December 25 off, but I'm working December 24 and 26.

None.... it's a Casino.... 24/7/365 operation!

However, I'm off from the 24th - 3rd so I'm quite happy about that.

We are only closed on 12/25 and 1/1, but the reality is most people will be taking vacation. Offices we be working with a skeleton staff.

[KCScouts]

Just Christmas day and New Year's day.

We'll probably get out early on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve since I think the market closes early those days (our holidays are based off the NYSE)

I work for a very small independent graduate school, and our offices are traditionally closed for the week between Christmas and New Year's (obviously no students are around at this time anyway). This year I imagine it will be extra-quiet as we've been told that we won't have access to the building--they're refinishing the floors or something.

We have a half day on the 23rd and return on Jan 5th. It's a pain because of deadlines, but I suppose it's a nice break.

Been like this for years and if you work it you are paid holiday pay witch is 3X you salary. Only skilled trade work it though like electricians, pipe fitters, tool and die , millwrights, and hilo repair. The plants are never closed up always open 365 days a year. Always people there the assembly is turned off but thats it.

I work for a public transportation agency, so the offices are only closed on Christmas and New Year's. However, operations people do have to work those days because they obviously can't shut the facilities down.

I'm in an office, though, so I get the holidays off.
