This Saturday, December 15, is a working day for budget-funded employees. These work instead of December 31, when they will have free from work, IPN reports.
This way, the budget-funded employees will have a mini-vacation of four days this yearend, on Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, and will return to work on January 2.
The Government decided that April 30, May 10 and August 26 will be nonworking days in 2019. Instead, April 13, May 18 and August 17, which fall on Saturday, will be working days.
The three nonworking days will supplement the bank holidays for which no other days are worked instead. These are: January 1 (New Year’s), January 7 and 8 (Christmas celebrated according to old calendar), March 8 (International Women’s Day), April 28 and 29 (Easter Day and next day), May 1 (International Labor Day), May 6 (Low Sunday), May 9 (Victory Day/Europe Day), June 1 (International Children’s Day), August 27 (Independence Day), August 31 (Our Language Day) and December 25 (Christmas celebrated according to new calendar).
