The calculator walks every calendar date from start to end (inclusive), keeps the weekdays, then subtracts your holidays:
Working days = (inclusive days − weekend days) − holidays
Weekends are Saturday and Sunday by default. If you enter the dates in reverse order, they're swapped automatically — the count is the same.
From Mon 5 Oct 2026 to Fri 9 Oct 2026, weekends excluded, no holidays:
Working days is the count of weekdays in your range minus the holidays you entered. Use it for project estimates, SLA timelines and leave balances.
One honest limitation: the calculator doesn't know your country's holiday calendar — it can't, since holidays vary by country, state and religion. Count the public holidays that fall on weekdays in your range and enter that number yourself.
