@purdym , I currently have this for not running the jobs on holidays and I plan to have a similar structure for business days as well.
Before the script below runs, I have a job that checks our Corporate Holidays calendar and creates a control file using holiday_ctrl.ctrl using SAS.

Thanks.

if [[ -e $CTRL_FL_HOL ]]
then
print "Pramodini today is a holiday"
print "Exiting Program"
exit
else
print "Pramodini today is a working day"
print "Execute Program"
fi
