How the working week works in Germany
German law treats Monday through Saturday as potential working days, but almost all offices run Monday to Friday, most on a 40-hour week. One thing that surprises people: a public holiday that lands on a Saturday or Sunday is simply gone for that year. There is no substitute day, which is why German holiday counts feel generous on paper and stingier in practice.
