personal days/personal holidays
Explanation:

These are days off, "time off" if you wish, given to the workers in lieu of religious holidays that have since been abolished by the government. Here we usually call them personal holidays or personal days because even if they are taken for religious reasons, they are taken out of the accrued "personal time off".

Trattamento per le ex festivita'
Per effetto di intese intervenute tra le parti sociali a seguito dell'abolizione agli effetti civili di alcune festivita' religiose, ai lavoratori vengono generalmente attribuiti dai contratti collettivi 32 ore aggiuntive di permessi retribuiti a maturazione annua. Le festivita' in questione sono le seguenti: S. Giuseppe; Ascensione; Corpus Domini; SS. Pietro e Paolo, ad eccezione dei lavoratori operanti nel comune di Roma per i quali la festivita' e' stata reintrodotta come ricorrenza del Santo Patrono. La maturazione e fruizione dei permessi sono regolate, in assenza di specifiche norme contrattuali, dai criteri generali.

Personal Holidays
In addition to scheduled holidays, full-time regular employees (codes 100, 104, and 106) are entitled to two personal holidays during the academic year.

Religious Holidays
An employee (codes 100/110, 104/114, and 106/116) may take off time for religious holidays not included in the University schedule with the permission of the person to whom he or she reports. Such time off must either be covered by a personal holiday or a vacation day if he or she is entitled to one at the time, or taken without pay.

For Office (codes 106/116) and Technical (codes 104/114) staff, if additional work is available (and the supervisor approves), the employee may also make up the time.

For Service staff (codes 107/117) covered by a collective bargaining agreement, please refer to the appropriate contract for all information about religious holidays. For Service staff (codes 107/117) not covered by a collective bargaining agreement, please contact the Office of Employee Relations.
