How long weekends are calculated
A long weekend forms whenever a public holiday falls on a Friday or a Monday, giving a 3-day weekend. It runs longer when holidays stack — Good Friday plus Easter Monday gives four days — and only statutory days off count, never days that are merely customary. All of these need no annual leave.

Sections 1–2 list the public holidays. Midsummer Eve and Christmas Eve are not among them, which is why our count is lower than some calendars.
