A company’s designated non-working days for a specific year, such as those observed by Lam Research in 2024, are formalized in an annual schedule. This schedule typically includes national holidays, company-specific holidays, and sometimes even floating holidays. A concrete example might include a list of dates ranging from New Year’s Day to Christmas, alongside specific company holidays like a founder’s day or an annual company-wide shutdown period.
Access to this information provides valuable planning insights for both employees and those interacting with the company. Employees can proactively schedule personal time off, vacations, and appointments around pre-determined breaks. External stakeholders, such as suppliers, customers, and partners, can anticipate potential delays in communication or service delivery during these periods. Historically, codifying these non-working days has improved organizational efficiency and transparency, reducing scheduling conflicts and promoting better work-life balance.
