regular work day, the employee may be absent with pay for the number of hours
the employee is regularly scheduled to work, up to a maximum of eight hours,
unless the employee is required to work to maintain essential state

the number of hours regularly scheduled to work on that day, up to a maximum of
eight hours.

hours.

shall add accrued holiday leave to an employee's annual or holiday leave
balance.
D. Using holiday leave. An
employee may use accrued holiday leave under state and federal law and agency
policy. The employee shall schedule the use of accrued holiday leave through
