The State Duma proposed to shorten the New Year holidays.
Lieutenant Sergei Mironov offered to work from January 3 to January 6 (inclusive), so that later in May he could rest from the 1st to the 10th:.
We propose to redistribute the [weekends] already available. For example, in the coming year 2027, the New Year holiday will last up to 11 days - from December 31 to January 10 inclusive. And the days of May are divided into two parts: from May 1st to May 3rd and from May 8th to the 10th. There will be four working days in the middle - you can just move them to the winter between Rosh Hashanah and Christmas.
Mironov is sure that such a division would make more sense, since in May there is a need for a garden. Residents of rural areas and summer residents will be able to fully engage in planting and have time to do everything necessary at the beginning of the season.
For everyone else, it will be a good time to relax. In addition, the weekends, when it's hot outside, are more in demand, Mironov believes.
But right now, the 2027 production schedule has already been adopted. According to him, in less than two months we will have a long vacation. We will be on vacation from December 31st to January 10th. So you have to work only 15 days in January.
Is it worth shortening the weekend in honor of the month of May?
- Yes, great idea.
- No, let it stay the same.
