statutory holiday
Government-mandated休日 day
A statutory holiday is a day off work established by law, such as Christmas Day or Labor Day.
Employers must typically provide the day off or pay premium wages to those who work.
The term is more common in Canadian and British usage; Americans usually say legal holiday or federal holiday.
Banks are closed on statutory holidays.
