How to make your leave go further

Public-holiday planning

  • Luxembourg has a high statutory leave floor plus public holidays including Europe Day.
  • Ascension Day and Whit Monday are recurring spring opportunities.
  • A public holiday falling on Sunday can trigger compensatory rules; confirm the official calendar and your employment conditions.

Regional and calendar caveats

The planner combines weekends with supported public-holiday data and can use first-level regional calendars where the dataset provides them. Employer-specific, municipal and sector-specific days can still differ.
