Payday

[judith756]

in louisiana when is an employer responsible for paying an employee when the payday falls on a national holiday and all banking institutions are closed?

Usually it is the following normal business day.

I'm not aware of any statutory requirement for the handling of paychecks set on a holiday. Payment would normally fall on the workday before or after, depending on the company policy.

However, it really would seem to have little if any impact if the payday falls on that holiday. Assuming you are paid by check, that check can be handed to you on THE holiday, or at 2am, or on Christmas Day. The holiday has no relevance to the handing-out of pay.
