How many days in March - how to find out for sure?

In everyday life, sometimes you need answers to the simplest everyday questions. Some of them are related to dates, holidays and other "temporary" points of existence.

How do I know how many days in March?

The exact number of days in a particular month will not be immediately announced by everyone. For example, how many days in March? And in July? And in October? Do not worry with the calculations - there is a simple and proven folk way to find out. Everyone's tool is always with us - these are our hands. Squeeze your fists and turn your knuckles toward you. On each hand there are "hillocks" and "hollows", which alternate. We agree - the "tubercle" (i.e., the knuckle) is 31 days. A "hollow" (i.e., the gap between the tubercles) is 30 days. An exception is February, in which 28 or 29 days.

Now we think - at least from left to right, even from right to left. January - Day 31 (hillock). February - 28 (hollow). March - 31 (hillock). April - 30 (hollow). And so on. July "bumps" on one hand end, and immediately "bumps" on the other (not important, left or right) begin. August - 31 (bugorok). September -30. And so until the end of the year. Simple and reliable!

Share this way of counting with friends and family and see how grateful they will be for such a "wand-rescue"!

And festive?

But the total number of days in a month is not all. Most often it is required to know when to work, and when exactly - to rest. For example, how many days in March, men can "relax" at work, and when it's time already to start preparing for the main women's holiday. Although the preparation for it, as a rule, goes from the beginning of the month.

On the question of how many festive days in March and which, any man will answer confidently - a festive day alone! March 8! And it must be experienced with dignity!

But the most interesting things usually begin next. This day can get on the day off, and then by law the output is postponed. Can "find yourself" in the middle of the week, and again there are some carry-shifts. And all to ensure that workers have the opportunity to adequately rest, without ripping the working week.

There are people for whom it is vital to plan your holidays in advance. They have already in three months decided where they will go or go, where and with whom they will celebrate. So you just need to know in advance about all the shifts of output and other offsets of the working schedule. Other similar information is needed to agree on a common family vacation. This is where the production calendar will help.

Production calendar - what is it?

This is an official document regulating the number of workers, holidays and weekends during the calendar year. The production calendar is prepared in advance for the whole year and is officially approved.

According to Article 112 of the TC, the government of the Russian Federation has the opportunity and the right to postpone the holiday, if it falls on the day off. In this case, it is transferred to the working day, which follows immediately after the weekend. This is done for the purpose of optimal use by workers of holidays and non-working days. On the eve of non-working holidays, the work day is reduced by one hour.

How many working days in March this year?

So, now we know where to get the most complete information about the upcoming days of work and rest - in the production calendar. What will the calendar show for 2014? And how many days in March (since the speech in the article was about him), the Russians are working, and how many are resting this year?

Let's look at the calendar. In 2014, our favorite holiday on March 8 was on Saturday. Thus, the weekend is from 8 to 10 March.

If you want to calculate how many days in March you have to work in a five- or six-day working week, you need to take the weekend (Sunday or Saturday with Sundays) of the total number of days (31) and that is the only holiday that does not affect the number of days off.

In this case, we will receive 20 working days (at five days) and, accordingly, 25 with a six-day workweek. We remind you that this is a production calendar for 2014.
