Local calculation

The calculation uses Saturday and Sunday as the normal weekend. The national calendar includes Irish public holidays. Good Friday is widely observed but is not automatically a statutory public holiday for every worker.

Source and coverage

Calculated from stable statutory rules. Ireland's ten statutory public holidays; employee entitlement does not always mean the next weekday off.

Primary source: Workplace Relations Commission public-holiday guidance. Critical payroll, legal and travel dates should still be confirmed with the relevant local authority.
