UVA Health University Medical Center

Medical Center team members who work on an approved holiday are eligible to receive holiday premium pay. If you do not work a holiday and your clinic is closed, you can receive pay by using your PTO. For more information, refer to MC Comp Policy 401.

While clinics will be closed during these approved holidays, the hospital, including the emergency room, remains open throughout the year, 24/7.

Non-exempt team members may choose not to use PTO if their clinic or department will be closed on a holiday.

Exempt team members who do not work any portion of a holiday must use PTO.

UVA Physicians Group (UPG)

UPG employees who work 20 or more hours a week will receive holiday pay, pro-rated to reflect their regular hours worked.

Note: If you are working in a patient care area, or other area critical to business operations, you may be required to work on a holiday. In this instance, your manager will discuss holiday staffing requirements with you.
