I just saw a discussion among corporate event planners where one person was upset that event organizers don’t give proper consideration to scheduling over top of Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur.
I can appreciate the annoyance, when I was still a practicing Christian I would never think to schedule a work thing over Easter or Christmas. We should treat others with consideration, and should be mindful of what others view as important days. But I also don’t know what each religion considers to be major, non negotiable holidays. Do you?
Another question, does it matter where the event is? (for example, in the US should less consideration be given to holidays of religions that have fewer adherents?)
Each country has their own local ones and even then each region of each country has even more specific ones.
Where I am from in Australia we have the following days as paid days off, but if you do work you get between time and a half or double time pay depending if they land in the weekend.
New Year’s Day, Australia Day (The day the first fleet of convicts arrived), Easter (Friday, Sunday, and Monday. Saturday is a regular day), ANZAC day (Celebration of the cooperation of Australian and New Zealand Army Corps in WW1), Q̶̶u̶̶e̶̶e̶̶n̶̶s̶̶ Monarchs birthday (depends on the area, doesn’t actually fall on his birthday), labour day, show day (region specific and each has their own name), Christmas day, Boxing Day(the day after Christmas), and finally New Year’s Eve.
