The final week of December 2025 will be the shortest workweek: Russians will work only on the 29th and 30th. Due to the shifting of days off, December 31 will be a non-working day, meaning the last workweek of 2025 will include just two working days — Monday and Tuesday.
The upcoming New Year holidays will be the longest in many years, lasting 12 days — from December 31, 2025, to January 11, 2026, inclusive. As a result, in January 2026, the total number of non-working days (weekends and public holidays) will exceed the number of working days — 16 versus 15.
