State Legal Holiday Amendments

Summary

The bill adds Good Friday to Utah’s list of legal holidays and gives state employees a half‑day of paid leave for that day. It also requires public school districts, charter schools and colleges to try to schedule breaks to coincide with Good Friday and other recognized holy days, and tells government entities to give high priority to personal leave requests on those days. The changes are intended to better recognize the state’s religious diversity.
