Answer


Unless the employees are Parish Civil Service employees, the requirements are generally established by formal written policy set by the governing authority of the public entity. If the employees are civil service employees, then the Parish’s civil service rules will apply.

If the district wants to amend its holiday pay policies, it should consult with its legal counsel, and possibly an employment attorney, to ensure that it complies with any and all applicable labor and employment laws (Federal and State).
