Private employers are not required to observe these holidays, though many do. The Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) governs standard working hours and overtime pay but does not regulate holiday pay.

The list of federal holidays remains consistent with previous years, including Juneteenth which became a federal holiday in 2021.
Insights
The standard work week in Yemen runs from Sunday through Thursday, with Friday and Saturday as the weekend. A cultural practice noted is the provision of compensatory 'Day off' holidays following certain public holidays that fall on a Friday, effectively extending holiday weekends.
A common cultural practice is creating 'bridge days' by taking leave between a holiday and a weekend for an extended break. The typical full-time work schedule is Monday to Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM. Strategic vacation planning is popular, with articles often published on the 'best days to take off' each year to maximize long weekends.
