Who does this apply to

Folks who work a 4 day or variable work week, are full-time and benefits eligible — including eligible for holiday pay.

What is a Floating (or Replacement) Holiday?

If you do not work on one of Origin’s standard holidays as a matter of your regular schedule (determined by the preceding 4 weeks and following 2 weeks of work), you are eligible to replace that holiday with what Origin calls a Floating Holiday - essentially a replacement for the holiday you didn’t need to take because you were already off on that day.

How can it be used?

Floating Holidays that are replacements of Origin standard holidays must be used in the same week of the Origin holiday itself. For example, if an Origin holiday falls on a Monday, and you don’t work on Mondays, you must take another day off that same week (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday).

Do I need to document anything or record anything in Rippling?

You don’t. You and your Manager will need to record your holiday in the schedule. If you are hourly, your Manager will reach out to the payroll team to record your hours for your time off appropriately.
