How the 2029 working days are counted
Weekdays. 2029 has 365 days: 261 weekdays (Monday to Friday) and 104 weekend days.
Holidays. Each federal holiday is subtracted on the weekday it is observed: a holiday on a Saturday on the Friday before, one on a Sunday on the Monday after. The day off counts in the year in which it is observed, even when the holiday itself falls in the next year. In 2029: Veterans Day (Sunday) is observed on Monday, November 12.
Not included. State holidays, company holidays and personal leave are not subtracted. If your employer observes fewer holidays (many private employers stay open on Columbus Day and Veterans Day), add those days back to the monthly figures.
