[Amended 9-27-1965 by Ord. No. 305]
A. All
employees shall be entitled to the following seven legal holidays
at full pay: New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day,
Labor Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. When
one of the aforesaid holidays falls on a Sunday, the following Monday
shall be observed as a holiday. All employees shall be entitled to
a one-half-day holiday on Good Friday at full pay; provided, however,
that no employee shall be entitled to be compensated for any of the
aforesaid holidays upon which an employee does not actually work if
such employee fails to work on the working day before and the working
day after said designated holiday.
B. Any
holiday work by a salaried employee shall be compensated for by allowing
such employee time off within 90 days of the time earned at the rate
of 1 1/2 hours for each hour or major fraction thereof, provided
that such compensatory time off may be taken only with the prior approval
of the Secretary. Holiday work by hourly rate employees shall be compensated
at double the regular time.
Any employee called for jury duty shall be compensated in an
amount equal to the difference between the employee's regular
compensation and his compensation as a juror.
Any employee wishing to leave the service of the Borough in
good standing shall file with the Secretary, at least 14 days before
leaving, a written resignation stating the effective date of resignation
and the reasons for leaving. Failure to comply with the provisions
of this section may be considered cause for denying such employee
future employment and for denying him such benefits as have been made
available. Unauthorized absence from work for a period of three days
may be considered as a resignation disclaiming benefits.
