Instead of 11 weekends a year is only nine.
The memory Institute has developed a new calendar of holidays. The main innovation – the eighth of March, the second and the ninth of may, the Ukrainians come to work, and if the holiday falls on a Saturday or Sunday, to carry the day off on Monday will not. The website “Today” has reviewed the bill and found out when the Ukrainians will have to work longer and what new holidays will appear in the calendar.
This year, the Ukrainians expected further 11 weekend, New year, Christmas, Easter, Independence Day, Victory Day etc. If the bill of the Institute of memory will support the Parliament in the next year instead of 11 days off will remain nine. March eighth and ninth of may remain holidays: concerts and official events not cancel plans, but weekend these days will not.
“Because of the celebration of national holidays should contribute to the recovery of the historical memory and the formation of national identity of citizens of Ukraine, the state status can claim only those dates and events, which correlate with the state historical and cultural traditions of the Ukrainian people, are consolidating capacity,” explains the document.
In addition, if, for example, the day of the Constitution, which remains the weekends, falls on a Saturday or Sunday, to carry the “free day” on Monday, no one will.
What will be the output:
The day of memory and reconciliation on may 8
Constitution day – June 28
Independence day – August 24
Day of defenders of Ukraine – October 14
New year – 1 January
Christmas – January 7
Easter – the date changes
Holy Trinity day – the date changes
Labor day – may 1
In addition, the calendar will be new festive (but working) days. For example, the Institute of memory proposes to legalize a long list of sad days.
