How the working week works in Brazil
Brazil's constitution allows a 44-hour week, which many employers still structure as five full days plus Saturday morning. National holidays are celebrated on their actual date, but the government designates bridge days for federal workers when a holiday lands near a weekend, and Carnival, though technically not a national holiday, stops the country for the better part of a week.
