Hungary has no statutory substitute days: a public holiday that falls on a Saturday or Sunday is not moved to a weekday, so the following Monday stays a working day in these counts. Each year a ministerial decree turns some bridge days into days off and makes a Saturday a working day in exchange; these counts follow the decree, which applies to employers with the general Monday-to-Friday schedule.
Week by week
August 2026 has 31 days: 10 Saturdays and Sundays, of which 1 (Saturday 8 August) is a working day by decree, 2 holidays on a weekday and 20 working days. The table splits them by calendar week, Monday to Sunday, cut at the start and end of the month.
