How does the substitute-day rule work?
Under Art. 154(2) of the Bulgarian Labour Code, when an official public holiday (other than the Easter days) falls on a Saturday or Sunday, the next working day is non-working. A weekend holiday therefore still reduces the working-day count — through its substitute Monday (or the next free weekday).
