Les commentaires de ce paragraphe, sur les jours fériés et fêtes légales pour Pologne, sont en Anglais. Si vous avez la moindre question sur ces commentaires, n'hésitez pas à nous contacter. • Governing Law: Holidays in Poland are regulated by the Non-working Days Act of 18 January 1951 (Ustawa z dnia 18 stycznia 1951 o dniach wolnych od pracy); Journal of Laws, No. 4 of 1960, item No. 28. The Act, as amended in 1990 (texts 159 and 160, respectively: Act to abolish the 22nd of July as the celebration day of the rebirth of Poland and Act to declare the 3rd of May national holiday), currently defines twelve Public Holidays. As Whit Sunday (Pentecost) always falls on a Sunday it is not widely known .
• Weekend Public Holidays: Public holidays that occur on a weekend remain on that date (ie. they are not moved to another date, such as the following Monday, for example).
• First Week of May: Under communist rule the 1st of May was celebrated as Labour Day with government endorsed parades, concerts and similar events. Following the 1990 changes, the Sejm decided to keep this day a public holiday but to give it a neutral name for a state holiday. In addition, the 3rd of May was made Constitution Day, so that Poles now have two public holidays within one week. It is customary to bridge the gap by taking a day's leave on the 2nd (a date on which it is usually impossible to do any business, as most government offices, banks, shops, etc are closed), and if the weekend falls favourably most Poles can enjoy nine work-free days while using up only three days of leave .
• In February 2004, 2 May was named Flag Day; it was not, however, made a public holiday .
• Store Openings: A new law, forbidding stores in Poland from opening on public holidays, came into effect on November 1, 2007. |
