2025 bridge planning

한국어

How many days off in a row you get by putting annual leave next to public holidays in 2025. For each holiday, plans from one leave day up to 5 days sit side by side.

This assumes Saturdays and Sundays are off and public holidays are paid holidays. Workplaces with fewer than five regular employees are outside Article 55(2), so public holidays are not paid holidays there, and shift work or Saturday work makes this list wrong for you.
