Wage and Salary Commission Reverses Holiday Limit
Raleigh, Oct. 22. The state wage and salary commission reversed its six holiday limit for state employees following an attorney general ruling. The commission had cut holidays from 12 to six amid protests and appeals, with Armistice Day center stage in the controversy and no change in its broader view on holidays. The attorney general said the act grants hours but not a reduced holiday count, so the commission left holidays at the statutory 12. The body maintained six days was fair, yet conforms to the ruling.
