Do you have to work on Juneteenth? Here's what's open, closed

 The federal government also confirmed via a post on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, that federal courts will be closed on Juneteenth.

U.S. courts will be closed June 19 for the Juneteenth holiday," read the U.S. Court's Juneteenth post on X. "E-filing will be available. Contact your local federal court for more info."

All federal and most state agencies will be closed on Wednesday, June 19, in observance of Juneteenth.
U.S. Postal Service retail locations will be closed, and there will be no regular mail delivery, except for holiday premium Priority Mail Express, on Wednesday, June 19, in observance of the Juneteenth holiday," read a portion of a press release from USPS. "Customers are still able to order stamps, shipping supplies, print shipping labels, and request package pickups 24/7, including holidays, online."

Most retail outlets and restaurants will remain open, so if you work in those industries, chances are you will be clocking in on Juneteenth.

Non-essential employees in the local branches of government will be off for Juneteenth, as will most 12-month public education staff.

Private businesses and industry make their own holiday calendars and may or may not observe Juneteenth as a holiday.
