In the United States, most workplaces and schools give employees and students a few days off during the Christmas holiday season. The exact number of days off varies depending on the organization and location. Commonly, many employers offer Christmas Day (December 25th) as a holiday, with some also providing additional days off around the holiday, such as the day before Christmas (December 24th) or the day after (December 26th). Some states may also have legal requirements for employers to provide a certain number of days off for holidays, including Christmas.
