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.
