How the working week works in Sweden

Working week: Monday to Friday
Weekend: Saturday and Sunday

Sweden does not compensate weekend holidays, but practice softens the calendar: many workplaces close early on the day before a major holiday, and Midsummer Eve, though technically not a public holiday, is treated as one by nearly the entire country.
