In Slovakia there are a total of 12 public holidays in 2026, which are automatically working-free days for employees working a 5-day working week. HR and payroll professionals must take into account when calculating wages and leave entitlements that these days are not counted as working days.

Veelgestelde vragen

How are public holidays calculated in the calculation of statutory annual leave?

Public holidays are not included in the number of days of annual leave entitlement. An employee is entitled to leave time independently of the number of holidays in a given year. A holiday is working-free time, but not leave.

What happens if an employee must work during a public holiday?

Work during a public holiday is considered overtime work and must be compensated accordingly under the Labour Code. The employer typically provides an increased allowance or a compensatory day off.

Does a public holiday falling on a Saturday or Sunday affect the number of working days in the week?

In the 5-day working week system, there is no need to compensate for a holiday falling on a weekend. The working week runs from Monday to Friday, and holidays falling on Saturday or Sunday retain their state character without entitlement to a substitute day off.

Are all Easter days (Friday, Sunday and Monday) in 2026 public holidays?

Yes, in 2026 the public holidays are Good Friday (3 April), Easter Sunday (5 April) and Easter Monday (6 April). All three days are working-free days and payroll professionals must factor them in when planning working time.

How does working time recording change in a week when a public holiday falls?

In a week with a public holiday, an employee has a shorter number of working days. For example, if a holiday falls on a Wednesday in a 5-day working week, the employee works only 4 days. However, the employer must not reduce wages or require overtime to make up for the missing day.
