- The fullest month is October with 23 working days; the lightest is May with 19.
- Counts use nationwide holidays only — regional ones (a state day in the US, a cantonal day in Switzerland) reduce the total further where they apply.
- Weekends are Saturday and Sunday. Half-day customs — a Christmas Eve afternoon, a Bayram eve — are not subtracted.
Which holidays are subtracted
The 11 nationwide holidays falling on weekdays come from the same dataset as the Belgium public holidays 2029 page, which lists each one with the weekday it lands on — and how Belgium's holiday system works:
- Belgium has ten public holidays, and a rule that protects them: when one falls at a weekend, the employer must grant a replacement day, chosen by agreement — often bridging to a long weekend.
- Regional celebration days exist (the communities each have their own feast day) but are not general public holidays; the ten national dates are what binds.
- Ascension always creates a Thursday holiday, and the Friday after is Belgium’s most common bridge day.
