Can my work refuse to pay me for an official firm holiday (i.e., Xmas) if I call in sick the day before?

My work has a policy that if you call in sick (unscheduled absence) the day before or after a firm holiday (like Thanksgiving, 4th of July, etc), you don't get paid for the day off (even though you would have otherwise received pay)! Is that even legal in California?

paid time off is regulated by the employers policies not by law
if that is their policy then it is legal in every state (even employee friendly California) |

Sure it is. Actually, they don't have to pay for holidays even if you DO work the day before - that's just a benefit they give. |

It must be because lots of places have that policy. |

Thats the way we do it at my company. If you call in sick before or after a holiday even with a doctors note I do not pay you. Its in the handbook which all employees sign saying they read the policy so they shouldn't be surprised when it happens. This cuts down on people not wanting to work and have an extra long holiday. |

The majority of employers work this way. If you take an unplanned sick day, the day preceding/ or after a paid holiday, you will not be paid for the holiday. |
