What the list covers

The national calendar includes Irish public holidays. Good Friday is widely observed but is not automatically a statutory public holiday for every worker.

Typical weekend

This guide treats Saturday and Sunday as the standard weekend when calculating working days and holiday breaks.

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.
