How to make your leave go further

Public-holiday planning

  • There is no general federal paid-vacation minimum, so enter the number of leave days your employer actually gives you.
  • Monday federal holidays such as Memorial Day and Labor Day are natural three-day weekends that can become longer breaks with a few leave days.
  • State holidays and employer observance differ; federal holidays are a baseline, not a promise of time off.

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.
