The last working week in December will last only three days - from Monday to Wednesday, that is, from the 28th to the 30th, after which the New Year holidays will begin. This was informed to TASS by the first deputy chairwoman of the State Duma Committee on Labor, Social Policy and Veterans Svetlana Besarev (United Russia). "The last week of the year will only be three working days," she said. December 31, 2026, which fell on a Thursday, became a day without work due to the postponement of the holiday from Sunday, January 4. As a result, the holidays will last from December 31 to January 10, 2027 inclusive. At the same time, added the parliamentarian, December will be one of the busiest months of the year - with 22 working days. In terms of the number of working hours, it shares the second place of the year with September and October. In each of these months the norm for a week of 40 hours is 176 hours. The record for 2026 was July, when the Russians worked 184 hours, 23 working days, she recalled.
