About Day after Thanksgiving, and who gets the day off.

The day after Thanksgiving, also known as Black Friday, isn't a federal holiday, but many employers and state governments close, turning Thanksgiving into a four-day weekend.

Retail is the exception: it's one of the busiest shopping days of the year.

75% of employers gave the day after Thanksgiving off in Mercer's 2024 survey, and it's a state holiday in states like California, Texas, Florida and Washington.
