How the working week works in Norway

Working week: Monday to Friday
Weekend: Saturday and Sunday

Norway concentrates its holidays around Easter and May: Maundy Thursday and Good Friday are both full public holidays, and May alone brings Constitution Day plus the movable Ascension and Whit Monday. Weekend holidays are not replaced.
