Afraid not. Holiday pay is something negotiated between the employee and the employer. Overtime is a different case, sao that if you have worked 40 hours and then then the holiday as well, you may have a case.

No law requires an employer to give employees time off for nationally recognized holidays. And no law requires an employer to pay a premium to workers who do come to work on those days.

The only exception is if working on a holiday puts a non-exempt, or hourly, worker over a 40-hour workweek. In that case, the Fair Labor Standards Act says such workers should be paid at a time-and-a-half rate for each hour over 40.

Hope this helps!
