Note: National public holidays are "Mondayised": when one falls on a weekend, it moves to the next working day. Pick your region to add its anniversary day.

Employers can give extra days off, and some workers are covered by different rules. If a date matters for pay or a legal deadline, confirm it with your employer or the official source.
