A day off is not even remotely the same as paid time off.

There’s no excuse for the United States being the shit stain that it is.

The 7 paid federal holidays are either paid time off, or time and a half depending on your job and employer.

There’s no requirement for paid time off at the federal level in the United States. Zero.

Some companies and public sector workers offer these benefits, but it’s not required according to current federal law.
