Most government contractor don’t get, and probably not even under this new edict, specific sick leave like federal employees. Whereas federal employees get 4 hours per pay period for sick leave on top of there annual regular leave, contractors generally get just paid time off to use as needed, accrued up to a certain level. They also get most, but not necessarily all, federal holidays. Federal employees get the 4 hours to accumulate unlimited and which upon retirement can lengthen the time for which retirement pay is calculated.

I can give you more accurate information:

Bill Clinton signed an EO, never revoked, that orders all Fed Contracting companies to give all Federal Holidays off, paid.

Most Federal Contracting companies do not bundle all time into 'paid time off', at least at present. Maybe they did before, but not now. Only the smallest companies bundle.

You are correct as to the practices of actual Federal employees.

Having worked for four govt contractors in the past 15 year only one gave ALL federal holidays off. But that one short changed on paid leave time.
