This year, 2025, has registered 9 of the 11 federal holidays that the United States recognizes, including Juneteenth or Emancipation Day, which was celebrated on June 19 This November, there are two more holidays marked on the calendar. During federal holidays, most government offices and some private companies are closed, a decision that in many cases depends on each employer. What are the federal holidays in November? The first is Veterans Day, celebrated on November 11 to honor those who have served in the United States Armed Forces. Originally called "Armistice Day" to commemorate the end of World War I in 1918, it was changed in 1954 to include all veterans, regardless of the conflict in which they served. The second federal holiday in November is Thanksgiving Day, traditionally celebrated on the fourth Thursday of the month. For 2025, it will be November 27th.

After both holidays, only one will remain on the calendar: December 25th (Christmas).

According to the U.S. Department of Labor, the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) protects employees' right to receive overtime and holiday pay, as determined by each company's policies and individual employee contracts.
