The FLSA does not require overtime pay for work on Saturdays, Sundays, holidays, or regular days of rest, unless overtime hours are worked on such days. Extra pay for working weekends or nights is a matter of agreement between the employer and the employee (or the employee's representative).
However, under California law, if the regular payday falls on a holiday, employees can be paid on the next regular business day and the pay will be timely. Employers should clearly define their holiday policies and communicate them to employees so everyone knows their holiday work schedule.
