If you work on a Federal Holiday (4th of July, for example) at a job that pays hourly, is the employer obligated to pay the employees more for working that day or does it vary state by state? And where can I find the laws regarding the state of Ohio?

Go on line to the gov't website for Ohio. Look under Labor Codes.
Also check the fed. gov't website. Usually fed laws supersede state laws!

I can't speak specifically about Ohio, but what I can say is you need to check wage and hour regulations for your state. Try the State of Ohio Government website. Try employee relations.
From what I recall as an hourly employee, I did receive 1-1/2 for working holidays. Of course, that's Wisconsin.

Employers are obligated to some sort of holiday pay system, but it will vary by industry. In most retail establishments, you will get a paid holdiay, and an extra day off. At the health care organization I used to work for, you got time and a half pay for the hours on that day.
Check with your labor department to see the actual law in your state.

less than the operating Time regulations 1998 all workers are entitled to 4 weeks paid vacation in conserving with year. This time can contain economic business organization vacation trips at contemporary, although the authorities has proposed this get replaced. An company can not refuse to pay you, tell her to make a written grievance about the count number pointing out that the refusal would volume to unlawful deductions from wages and that she is thinking complaining to an employment tribunal on those grounds.

first of all, that should be posted where everyone can read it... a break room, a locker room, some place where all employees can read it. and the D.O.L (dept. of labor) requires that employees that work at least fourty hours at minimum wage get paid overtime or possibly time and a half for working holidays. for more info take the TIME to read the link below

I think it's at the employers discretion. I worked yesterday for my regular pay because my job sucks.
