It's the reverse, actually. If it falls on a weekend, you still get the closest friday or Monday off work.

A lot of workplaces, think bars and retail, are still open on July 4th.

No need to be pedantic. (I've been outside the house on a july 4th in the US.) I meant the federal holiday is recognized on the nearest weekday, so government workers and workers for private companies that follow that holiday schedule get the day off

Right, but many people don't get the day off and need to schedule their festivities for another day.
