Belarusians' Rest and Work Schedule for 2026 Announced
In a recent report by Our Site, the Belarusian government has determined how citizens will spend their rest and work days in 2026. Here's a breakdown of the upcoming year's holiday schedule.
Belarusians will enjoy a four-day weekend from January 1 to 4, 2026, marking the New Year and Orthodox Christmas celebrations. The holiday on January 7, 2026, will only consist of one day off and is not part of a long weekend.
Moving forward to the spring, Belarusians will have a four-day weekend from April 18 to 21, 2026. The working day on April 20 will be shifted to April 25 to create this long weekend. Radunitsa, falling on a Tuesday, April 21, 2026, is the only occasion for a four-day weekend in the spring of 2026.
In early November, Belarusians will celebrate the holiday of the October Revolution, which falls on a Friday. This holiday will result in a three-day weekend for Belarusians. However, it's worth noting that the article does not discuss the three-day weekend in early November or the four-day weekend from December 22 to 28, which includes Catholic Christmas on December 25 and ends on December 28.
December 26, falling within the four-day weekend, is a working day, but it is recommended to shift it to December 20. No shifts are needed during the New Year's week from January 1 to 4, 2026, in Belarus.
The Prime Minister has signed a document to shift the working day from Monday, April 18, 2026, to Saturday, April 25, 2026, and from Monday, April 20, 2026, to Saturday, April 25, 2026. The article does not mention any additional vacations desired by Belarusians, beyond the holidays mentioned.
It's important to note that no other long weekends are mentioned in the article for the remaining months of 2026. Vacations are often thought of with warmth throughout the year, and an additional vacation is especially desired, but the article does not discuss any further holidays or long weekends.
