“The best things in life are the people we love, the places we’ve been, and all the memories we’ve made along the way.” – Unknown

We all dream of building a life we don’t need a vacation from. But while the sentiment is strong, the dream does not seem plausible. Everyone needs a break from time to time to get away from routine and recharge themselves. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Rightly so! It is vital that an employer sanction necessary leaves of employees for their personal lives. In order to ascertain that, the HR department of an organization needs to add these holidays in their company’s annual day-offs calendar. HRIS software comes with a preset feature to manage holidays. Federal holidays can be incorporated directly into the system so that each employee can monitor the holiday dates in real-time and can plan their schedules accordingly. There are some dates in the calendar that come with a holiday of their own. Let’s have a look at the US federal holidays for the year 2021.

However, it is mandated by the federal law that employers offer appropriate leave sanctions for the religious holidays of each employee.
