Does the Nurse salary pay table include holiday pay?

Is the annual salary for nurses shown in the pay tables including federal holiday pay?

For the Veterans Affairs system, sorry

The salary that they post on those tables is projected based on 40 hrs/wk worked and paid out twice a month (24 pay periods per year).  That differs from most RN jobs that are 36 hrs/wk paid out every two weeks (26 pay periods per year).  You either make extra for working holidays or they give you an extra free paid vacation day to use on another day.
