Poland recognises thirteen public holidays under the Act on Days Free from Work of 18 January 1951, last substantially amended in 2010. The list is heavily Catholic (Epiphany, Easter Monday, Corpus Christi, Assumption of Mary, All Saints', Christmas Day, Saint Stephen's Day) plus civic dates including Constitution Day on 3 May commemorating Europe's first modern written constitution of 1791, Independence Day on 11 November marking the 1918 restoration of Polish statehood, and Labour Day on 1 May. Epiphany was restored to the list in 2011 after a 50-year absence, and Christmas Eve was added as a public holiday by the Sejm in 2024 effective 2025.
Poland's Labour Code in article 129 sets a 40-hour, five-day average working week, almost universally Monday to Friday in offices. Article 132 requires at least 11 hours of daily rest. The Code of Civil Procedure article 115 rolls deadlines falling on a Saturday or a statutory non-working day to the next working day. Settlement of zloty transactions runs on the Narodowy Bank Polski's SORBNET2 high-value system and the National Clearing House Elixir system, both of which observe the thirteen-day public holiday list.
