The 260 working days shown above are the 366 calendar days of 1944, minus the 106 Saturdays and Sundays, minus the 0 public holidays that land on a weekday. Holidays that fall on a Saturday or Sunday are not subtracted, because they do not remove a day anyone would have worked; in 1944 that applies to 0 of Argentina's public holidays. At a standard eight-hour day, 260 working days works out to roughly 2,080 working hours across the year, before any annual leave is taken.
The Ley de Contrato de Trabajo (Law 20.744) articles 196 to 207 set the standard private-sector week at 48 hours over six days, normally Monday to Friday plus Saturday morning in offices, with the modern norm being Monday to Friday at 9 hours. Sunday is the statutory weekly rest day under article 204. The Civil and Commercial Procedure Code (Law 17.454) article 156 rolls procedural deadlines falling on a non-working day to the next día hábil. Settlement of peso transactions runs on the Banco Central de la República Argentina's MEP (Medio Electrónico de Pagos), which observes the national holiday list including declared puentes.
Argentina's public holidays are set by Law 27.399 of 2017 consolidating the prior Law 21.329 and amendments. The list distinguishes feriados inamovibles (fixed-date national holidays) from feriados trasladables (movable holidays that can be shifted by executive decree to a Monday). Fixed holidays include New Year's Day, Carnival (Monday and Tuesday before Lent), Day of Remembrance for Truth and Justice on 24 March marking the 1976 coup anniversary, Malvinas Veterans' Day on 2 April, Labour Day, May Revolution Day on 25 May, Flag Day on 20 June, Independence Day on 9 July, San Martín Day in August, Day of Respect for Cultural Diversity in October, Day of National Sovereignty in November, Immaculate Conception and Christmas Day.
This matters because the working-day total is not spread evenly. Some months in Argentina carry several public holidays while others have none, so the month-by-month table above is the figure to use for payroll runs, billing cycles, SLA windows, and project plans rather than a flat assumption of about 21.7 working days per month. A month with two weekday holidays can have several fewer working days than a clear one, which changes capacity planning and the realistic delivery date for anything scheduled in business days.
To see the individual dates, the day of the week each holiday lands on, and the full official list, open the Argentina holiday calendar for 1944. You can subscribe to those dates as an .ics feed so they appear in your own calendar, or use the working-days-between-two-dates calculator to count business days for a specific date range rather than the whole year.
Working-day figures are computed from the public holiday list for Argentina (source: Nager.Date and the national references above) combined with a Monday-to-Friday business week. Regional holidays and substitute-day rules vary; confirm against the official calendar for legal or payroll use.
