You started a job on March 1st. It’s now June 15th. Your employer wants to calculate your pro-rata bonus based on “working days.”

They can’t just use total days because weekends and holidays don’t count. So how many actual working days did you complete?

Step 1: Enter Start Date Pick when the period begins.

Step 2: Enter End Date Pick when the period ends.

Step 3: Calculate Click “Calculate Working Days” and get:

• Total working days (the big number)
• Total calendar days in the period
• Number of weekends excluded
• Number of public holidays excluded
• List of which holidays fell in your date range

What Gets Excluded

• Weekends: Every Saturday and Sunday
• Public Holidays: New Year, Workers’ Day, Children’s Day, Democracy Day, Independence Day, Christmas, Boxing Day, Eid, Easter Monday, Mawlid

Use Cases

• Invoice calculations: Charging clients for actual work days

Why This Matters
