In observance of these February 2023 holidays, some government offices, schools, and businesses will close:
-
Carnival and Ash Wednesday will be observed by several countries in Latin America from Monday, February 20 through to Wednesday, February 22
-
President’s Day/Washington’s Birthday will be observed in the US on Monday, February 20
As a result, criminal searches, drug and health testing and verifications with external dependencies are expected to be delayed 24 to 48 hours. We also recommend candidates and employees scheduled for drug and health services call their chosen clinic or laboratory to verify hours of operation.
For reference, here’s a global list of public and national 2023 holidays. Thank you for your continued trust in Sterling.
