How Working Days Are Counted

This calculator checks each date in your selected range and counts it when the weekday is selected as a workday. It can be used as a working days calculator or business days calculator, but it does not remove public holidays, company holidays, or regional non-working days.

Examples

Working Days vs Calendar Days

Calendar days count every day in a date range. Working days count only the weekdays you select, such as Monday through Friday. This makes the tool useful for salary estimates, project timelines, invoice periods, and work schedule planning.

Date range

January 1 to January 31 includes 31 calendar days.

Workdays

Monday through Friday usually removes weekends from the count.

Holidays

Public holidays are not removed unless they fall on unselected workdays.
