Working Days Calculator
حساب أيام العمل
Count the actual working days between two dates after removing the weekend days you choose and the holidays you add.
Calculated in your browser. Your data is never sent to a server.
Result
Pick the start and end dates.
Weekends differ by country: Friday and Saturday in Saudi Arabia and most of the Gulf, Saturday and Sunday in most of the world. Choose a preset or set each day off yourself.
Add public holidays to exclude them too. A holiday that falls on a weekend day is not subtracted twice.
How it works
- Every day from the start date to the end date is counted, both included.
- Days that fall on the chosen weekend are removed.
- Holidays you added are removed from the remaining days.
- The result is the number of working days, plus the next working day after the end date.
Formula
Working days = total days − weekend days − holidays on working days
