The first day of Christmas, falling this year on Saturday, gave those working in December fewer working days – for Saturday an additional day off is due. The 2022 calendar is even more favorable in this regard; there will be one more day off and the opportunity to use it is coming in January. What about the long weekends next year?
In December, full-time working hours are 22 days or 176 hours. The employee is then entitled to an additional day off for Christmas Saturday pickup. Using it right after Christmas or before New Years Eve will prolong the rest.
One more day off in 2022. How much will Poles be working next year?
In 2022, the first similar occasion will take place on January 3 or 7. Next year we will have a total of four long weekends, list inFakt experts.
The number of working days is regulated by the Labor Code. It depends, among other things, on how many public holidays do not fall on Sunday.
There will be nine such cases in 2022:
- • January 1, 2022 – New Year – Saturday
- • January 6, 2022 – Epiphany – Thursday
- • April 18, 2022 – the second day of Easter – Monday
- • May 3, 2022 – May 3 National holiday – Tuesday
- • June 16, 2022 – Corpus Christi – Thursday
- • August 15, 2022 – Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary – Monday
- • November 1, 2022 – All Saints’ Day – Tuesday
- • November 11, 2022 – National Independence Day – Friday
- • December 26, 2022 – the second day of Christmas – Monday.
The number of working days will therefore rise to 251 next year, one less than this year. Already on January 3 or 7 it will be possible to extend the weekend, because the New Year falls on a Saturday. In this situation, the employer is obliged to grant another day of leave to employees who work from Monday to Friday (art. 130 paragraph 2 of the Labor Code). It must be used in the same billing period, that is in most cases in the same month.

For part-time employees, the number of working hours is calculated in proportion to the scope of the work in the contract. – For example, if someone is employed part-time, the minimum working time in February 2022 will be 80 hours, or half of the 160 hours. Likewise, in the case of ¾ hour of the same month, it will be 120 hours – comments Mateusz Boguszewski, chief accountant at inFakt.
However, it is possible to extend the working time of part-time employees. Overtime working hours cannot exceed the full-time hourly basis. This means that a person employed ½ and ¾ full time in February 2022 will not be able to work more than 160 hours. For overtime, no higher rate, such as overtime, is payable, unless the conditions of Art. 151 of the Labor Code.
