In America, Congress is the only body that has the power to declare national holidays.According to Title 5 of the US Code, neither Congress or the President has the authority to declare a holiday that must be enforced by the states - Federal holidays are only applicable to Federal employees and the District of Columbia.Each state chooses which holidays it will recognize.In the UK, the Government declares national holidays. Local councils can decide when the schools are allowed in-service days, holidays and such. However they all have a maximum and minimum number of days. Occasionally holidays can be added such as the Royal Wedding in April 2011 this is a one year occasion.

You can maintain a proper account for holidays or days by using work time calculator, follow these guidelines: Exclude Holidays and Days Off: Do not count hours worked on holidays or days off in your total work hours. Adjust for Paid Time Off (PTO): If your company compensates you for holidays, include those hours as paid but do not count them as hours worked. Track Overtime Separately: If a holiday falls within a workweek and you work more than your regular hours, calculate any overtime separately.
