Questions
What is the difference between business days and working days?
They mean the same thing: days in the working week that are not public holidays. "Business days" is more common in the US and "working days" in the UK.
Do weekends count as business days?
No, unless you switch Saturday or Sunday on under Options, for example for a 6 day week.
Is the end date included?
When counting between dates, both dates are included by default and either can be left out under Options. When counting days in total, the end date is left out by default, which gives the usual difference between the dates.
How do substitute days work?
When a UK, Canadian or Australian holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday, a weekday, usually the next Monday, is given instead. US federal holidays on a Saturday move to the Friday before. The calculator skips the substitute day, and the calendar shows its name.
Can I add company closure days?
Yes. Add them under Options, or tap a weekday on the calendar to mark it as a day off. They are kept in the link you copy.
How far ahead does it work?
Holiday data covers 2024 to 2030. Weekends and your own days off are skipped for any year.
Is this legal advice?
No. It is a counting tool. Court and statutory deadlines can have their own rules, so check the rule that applies to you.
