About Good Friday, and who gets the day off.

Good Friday marks the crucifixion of Jesus, two days before Easter Sunday, so its date moves every year between March 20 and April 23.

It isn't a federal holiday, but the stock market closes, and a few states, including Connecticut, Hawaii, Louisiana, New Jersey and Tennessee, give state workers the day off.

About one in five private-sector workers with paid holidays gets Good Friday off (19%, BLS 2018), more often in finance, since the stock market closes.
