The press service of the Ministry of Labor of Russia reports that Russians will not work for almost a month during the year due to the red days of the calendar.
The Russian tripartite commission on regulation of social and labor relations, which involves representatives of the government, employers and trade unions, approved the project of the Ministry of Labor to postpone weekends in 2019. According to the government, the forthcoming New Year holidays are waiting for us from December 30, 2018 to January 8, 2019.
The weekend of January 5 and 6 changed to May 2 and 3 (Thursday and Friday). Defender of the Fatherland Day on February 23, 2019 falls on Saturday, so it is postponed to Friday, May 10. Therefore, the May holidays are scheduled from 1 to 5 May and from 9 to 12 May.
The Russians will rest for three days – from March 8 to 10 and from November 2 to 4. Another holiday falls on Wednesday, June 12. In total, in 2019, holiday dates will allow you to rest for 26 days.
