Working days in Russia, 2028
Russia has 250 working days in 2028: the year's 260 weekdays, minus the 10 nationwide public holidays that land on one. The month-by-month table below is computed from the same holiday data the calendar maker prints.
Provisional for 2028. Russia moves rest days by government decree each year, and the decree for 2028 is not published yet. The figure below is weekdays minus the nationwide public holidays we hold; the official production calendar will differ once the transfers are announced.

- The fullest month is August with 23 working days; the lightest is January with 16.
- 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 10 nationwide holidays falling on weekdays come from the same dataset as the Russia public holidays 2028 page, which lists each one with the weekday it lands on — and how Russia's holiday system works:
- Russia’s New Year holidays run as a statutory block from 1 January into the first week of the year, with Orthodox Christmas on 7 January inside it — the longest standing holiday cluster in Europe.
- Each year a government decree shuffles adjacent working days to extend holiday bridges, so the exact non-working pattern for future years is provisional until that decree appears.
- When a holiday falls at a weekend, the day off is carried to a working day under the same yearly decree.
