CalendarwiseHow business days are counted
A business day here is any Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday in the range. Saturdays and Sundays are skipped. The big number is the business day count, and the list below it gives the calendar days, weekend days, weeks, hours and minutes for the same range.
Public holidays are not removed, because they differ by country, region and employer. Subtract your own holidays from the result to get working days for your office.
Common questions
How do I calculate working days between two dates?
Enter the start and end dates. The result at the top is the number of Monday to Friday days. Tick Include the end date to count the end day too.
Does the business day count include the start date?

Are public holidays excluded?
No. Subtract holidays that fall on weekdays from the answer.
What if my weekend is Friday and Saturday?
