Holidays on a Saturday and a Sunday in 2027

Labour Day (1 May) and Christmas Day (25 December) fall on a Saturday in 2027. A holiday on any day other than Sunday reduces working time by 8 hours, so the employer has to give employees another day off for each of them.

Easter Sunday, Pentecost Sunday, the Assumption (15 August) and the Second Day of Christmas fall on a Sunday. These don't give an extra day off.

Long weekends in Poland in 2027

Five holidays give you a long weekend without leave, and two Thursday holidays turn into 4 days off with one day of leave.
