FAQ

Yes. Workdays count only Monday through Friday. Saturday and Sunday are counted separately as weekend days.
This calculator counts weekday vs weekend only. Public holidays are not automatically excluded. For holiday-adjusted counts, manually subtract known holidays from the workday total.
When checked, the end date itself is counted in the range. When unchecked, counting stops the day before the end date.

Quick Tip

A typical month has about 22 workdays. A calendar year has roughly 260 workdays (52 weeks x 5 days), before subtracting public holidays.
