Overall, as of 2019, 45% of employers gave employees the day off.<ref name="mlky">{{cite news |title=Does Observing Martin Luther King Jr. Day Align With Your Company Values? |url=https://www.yahoo.com/video/does-observing-martin-luther-king-221124283.html |access-date=16 January 2023 |date=January 14, 2021 |work=[[Yahoo Video]] |archive-date=January 16, 2023 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230116233455/https://www.yahoo.com/video/does-observing-martin-luther-king-221124283.html |url-status=live }}</ref>{{unreliable source?|date=January 2023}} The reasons for not providing the day off have varied, ranging from the recent addition of the holiday to its occurrence just two weeks after the week between [[Christmas]] and [[New Year's Day]], when many businesses are closed for part or all of it. The [[New York Stock Exchange]] and [[NASDAQ]] both close for trading, and banks are generally closed. Additionally, many schools and places of higher education are closed for classes; others remain open but may hold seminars or celebrations of King's message. The observance of MLK Day has led to some colleges and universities extending their Christmas break to include the day as part of the break. Some employers use MLK Day as a [[Long weekend|floating or movable holiday]].<ref>{{cite news|title=MLK Day's crafters urged a day of meaning, service|last=Stewart|first=Jocelyn|date=January 16, 2006|work=[[Contra Costa Times]]}}</ref>
