While not all places will give PTO or weekly paid holidays, the US still has federal holidays that cause most businesses to close.
Not really accurate to count all federal holidays, and a lot of businesses don’t close even on the ones you can’t count.
Even people in essential fields are still required to take the day off if they are salary
Nah, people like healthcare workers still have to show up on holidays. Actually it’s often some of our busiest times of the year. We’re usually offered pto that we can choose to take some time else if we work on holidays.
There is no law, because essential fields or individual businesses can still be working. US should at least have 7 days for the 7 paid federal holidays.
There is only 6 holidays where the majority (77%) of American workers are offered some kind of PTO, and that’s only accounting for people who are working full time.
There is no law because America doesn’t care about its workforce. Other countries have essential employees as well, they are just compensated differently.
^leave it to Lemmy to down vote accurate information just to spread unnecessary hate for everyone’s hate boner.
Nah, there just plenty of people here who have had to work on holidays and know you are full of shit.
My bad, I forgot EMS and other essential workers don’t go to work in other countries during holidays. Thanks for informing me. No need to understand time and a half when 0.00% of people work.
It’s very important to make sure we only apply a rule to one country and not the others for an info graphic. Double standards are great, aren’t they. Resume your incorrect hate boner.
