How it works
The calculator walks the inclusive date range and counts days whose weekday is Monday through Friday. Public holidays are deliberately not deducted — they vary by country and region, so subtract your own holiday list from the result.
Frequently asked questions
Are both start and end dates counted?
Yes — the range is inclusive on both ends. A Monday-to-Friday week counts as 5 business days.
Why aren't public holidays excluded?
Holiday calendars differ by country, state and employer. The calculator counts the objective part — weekdays — and you subtract the holidays that apply to you.
How many business days are in a typical year?
260, 261 or 262, depending on where weekends fall. Each year page in the business days section shows the exact month-by-month breakdown.
