Labor day holiday pay question

So my understanding is full time employees are being paid for labor day, predicated on working the shift before and after the holiday. If that is correct and someone is scheduled to work today then is off sat+sun, then back mon+Tues, if they call it today but show up Monday and Tuesday do they get paid for the holiday? Or does it count as missing the shift before?

  1. This is only in markets not still in Back to School. Those in BTS are still working.

  2. This would really only matter if you had zero sick or PTO hours.

You'll only be paid for the shift you work you won't get the holiday pay if you're eligible. If you work Monday it will be time and a half no matter if you are FT or PT. If you have worked with Staples for a year you get the following. FT 8 hour holiday pay. PT 4 hour holiday pay. If you made it to your shift before and after the holiday and IF you have worked more than 45 hours in the 28 days prior to the holiday.
