U.S. Construction Holiday Cheatsheet 2026

Public holidays can quietly shape construction timelines, crew availability, and site operations throughout the year. In the U.S., dates like New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Labor Day often influence how projects are staffed and scheduled.

 

For 2026, this construction holiday sheet pulls together all federally observed U.S. holidays in one simple visual reference. While US federal labor laws do not require paid time off for these dates, knowing when they fall helps construction businesses plan ahead, avoid scheduling conflicts, and maintain accurate payroll records.

 

This US construction holiday sheet covers:

 

  • Federal holidays that may impact construction schedules
  • Calendar dates that help plan labor needs and project timelines
  • Industry-related factors that influence workforce availability

Keeping track of holiday dates makes planning easier as labor availability continues to change across the industry. Download the poster as a free, practical reference for 2026.
