The last month of spring pleases with its holidays. All working people are interested in how we rest in May 2021. The Ministry of Labor, on the basis of government decrees, officially approved the calendar according to which the work process will be carried out.

What are the holidays in May

Every year, all of Russia at the beginning of this month celebrates two holidays:

1. Labor Day, which takes place on May 1st.
2. Victory Day, the celebration of which is scheduled for May 9.

Since they both fall on legal weekends in 2021, the government decided to postpone the holidays.

How many days to work

Employees who work in the office are interested in how we rest in May 2021. Many people want to plan in advance what they will do during the holidays of the last month of spring. In May 2021, those who work on a five-day basis will have to work only 19 days, which is 152 working hours. It turns out that the working idea will be reduced by 2 hours.

How many days off

Official weekends are given 12 days instead of the 8 standard days that are provided in most months. May is rich in rest. There are 10 days on Saturday and Sunday. Therefore, the Ministry of Labor allocated only two days for the holidays.

The principle of transferring holidays

The Labor legislation of the Russian Federation provides for solutions to situations when a holiday falls on a weekend. In this case, it is automatically transferred to the first working day after the celebration. In May, the first number falls on Saturday, the second falls on Sunday, again a non-working day. Therefore, May 3 will also be a day off for people working on a five-day week.

Victory Day in 2021 falls on Sunday. The government decided to postpone the holiday until May 10 - Monday. However, it must be remembered that this principle does not apply for New Years and Christmas holidays.

According to the law, in the Russian Federation, 14 non-working days will be allocated for the holidays per year.

Inappropriate break

Often there are small periods between holiday weekends that make inappropriate breaks during a possible vacation. The same will happen on November 4th, when the holiday falls on Thursday. On Friday, logically, you can make a day off in order to use 4 days of rest to the fullest.

A similar thing will happen in May 2021. There will be 4 working days between two unscheduled short breaks.

How to extend the weekend

Many people prefer to go out of town or on vacation abroad on May holidays. However, the official weekend will run from May 1 to May 3 and from May 8 to 10. There are 4 days between these periods, which by law are working days.

There are two ways to increase rest. If someone has not yet had time to take the prescribed 28-day vacation, then the weekend is taken into account. In this case, there will be no loss in wages. Time off is compensated by vacation payments.

The week between holidays will be 4 days. For some, there will be a small loss of money during this period, so you can take a vacation at your own expense. In this case, it will be possible to rest from May 1 to May 10 inclusive.

In ten days, you can fly abroad or visit relatives who live far away.

How to rest with a 6-day work week

Public and private employees working 6 days a week will have a different schedule on the last day of the month. On weekends, 1 and 2, as well as the 9th and 10th are allotted. Let's figure out why only 10 days are allocated for rest.

Since May 1 is Saturday, which is a working day for six days, the organization is obliged to provide its employees with a day off. In this case, there is no need to postpone the holiday to the next weekday.

In the period from May 8 to May 10, the day of their beginning disappears from the weekend, because the 8th is Saturday, and she, with a six-day period, is working according to the law. On the day before the holiday, the schedule can be reduced by 1 hour.

Outcomes

Those who work on a five-day vacation are assigned from 1 to 3 and from 8 to 9 May. Since holidays fall on weekends in 2021, they will be rescheduled. So, for May 1, which falls on Saturday, the workers will rest on the next Monday. A similar situation will occur on Victory Day. The holiday will be postponed until May 10.

There is an unreasonable break between non-working periods in the last month of spring. It will last 4 days, during which the employees of the organizations will have to work. But you can take the prescribed vacation for this time or write an application for vacation at your own expense.
