Două noi zile libere: Boboteaza și Sfântul Ioan Botezătorul Copy

Începând din 2024 românii vor beneficia de încă 2 zile libere legale, conform unui nou act normativ.

According to art. 134 of the Labour Code, actualised in 2011 with the Law 40/2011, in Romania the legal non-working days are:

• 1-2 January, New Year
• 1st and 2nd day of Easter
• 1st of May, international worker`s day
• 1st and 2nd day of Whitsuntide, 3-4th of June
• Assumption Day, 15th of August
• 1st of December, National Day of Romania
• 1st and 2nd day of Christms, 25-26 December

The people who belong to different religions than the Orthodox one have the right to take two days off for every one of the three annual religious holidays, declared so by the legal religious cults.

More additional proposals for days-off have been made: 24th of January, 10th of May or 30th of November, but these haven`t been aproved yet, still having the project status. Therefore, these days are not presently acknowledged as legal holidays.
