official holidays. Why the President of Ecuador is accused of betrayal

All Russians are looking forward to the New Year holidays. About how we rest New Year 2020 in January, how many days off and public holidays waiting for us we can find out now.

Since Government Decree No. 875 of July 10, 2019 “On the postponement of weekends and holidays” has already been adopted and entered into force. Let's decipher each day of non-working holidays in January 2020.

How to postpone the weekend in January 2020

The New Year and Christmas holidays, or as they are also called the January holidays, in 2020 will please with their duration - 8 calendar days. But let's start exactly on January 1, since December 31, 2020 is a working Thursday, albeit a shortened one.

How we relax on the New Year holidays in 2020, that is, days off in January, depends on the decision of the Government to postpone the weekend. The government decided to postpone only two days in 2020 - January 4 and 5.

By decree No. 875 dated July 10, 2019, the following days off were postponed in 2020:

• from Saturday 4 January to Monday 4 May;
• from Sunday 5 January to Tuesday 5 May.

Therefore, the holidays in January 2020 will end only on the 8th day inclusive. But January 9 will be the first working day according to the schedule. Except, of course, for those employees who take vacations winter holidays and continue to rest.

Work on weekends and non-working holidays in January

According to the legislation, work on weekends and non-working holidays is prohibited (Article 113 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). However, there are exceptions to this rule.

So, for example, it is allowed to involve an employee to work on a weekend / non-working holiday, if there is a need to perform unforeseen work, on the urgent implementation of which the further normal functioning of the organization depends.

In this case, the employee can be involved only with his written consent.

Note that sometimes engaging an employee on weekends/non-working holidays (including in January 2021) is possible without obtaining their consent.

For example, such situations include the involvement of an employee to prevent a catastrophe / industrial accident or eliminate the consequences of a catastrophe / industrial accident / natural disaster (Article 113 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

How to pay for work on weekends and non-working holidays in January 2020

Work on weekends, as well as non-working holidays, is payable at least twice the amount (Article 153 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

The exact amount of wages for work on weekends / non-working holidays (including January 2020) can be specified in the collective agreement, local regulation or employment contract.

Keep in mind! An employee who worked on a weekend/non-working holiday may be granted another day of rest. In this case, work on a weekend / non-working holiday is paid in a single amount, and the day of rest chosen by the employee is not paid (Article 153 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

However, the initiative to replace double pay with another rest day should come from the employee, not from the employer.

Working hours in January 2020

According to the production calendar of Russia, in January 2020 there are 17 working days and 14 days off and holidays in the country.

Production calendar for January 2020

In fact, it includes a holiday calendar for January 2020.

December 31, 2020 - working day or not

According to the legislation, on December 31, it will be possible to leave work an hour earlier, since after it there is a non-working holiday.

But still, some regions at the local level legalized another day off on December 31. Here is an up-to-date list of regions in which December 31, 2020 is officially a non-working day.

An innovative plant growth stimulator!

Increase seed germination by 50% in just one application. Customer reviews: Svetlana, 52 years old. Just an incredible treat. We heard a lot about it, but when we tried it, we were surprised ourselves and surprised our neighbors. From 90 to 140 tomatoes grew on tomato bushes. It’s not worth talking about zucchini and cucumbers: the crop was harvested in wheelbarrows. We have been gardening all our lives, and there has never been such a harvest ....

The last Tuesday of December is declared a day off in the republics:

1. Karachay-Cherkessia;
2. Buryatia; Crimea;
3. Kabardino-Balkarian
4. Khakassia.

And also in the areas:

1. Voronezh,
2. Vladimirovskaya,
3. Kirovskaya;
4. Kurgan;
5. Leningradskaya;
6. Orlovskaya;
7. Pskov,
8. Sverdlovsk,
9. Tomsk.

In some regions, the governors, by their decision, moved the working day of December 31 to Saturday, December 28. This:

1. Ulyanovsk region,
2. Novosibirsk region,
3. Samara Region,
4. Sakhalin region;
5. Stavropol region.

The postponement of the day off applies to civil servants and employees of state institutions of the subjects. Commercial enterprises decide for themselves whether to arrange a day off for employees on December 31 or not.

School holidays are loved and long-awaited not only for millions of students in our country, but also for their parents. In order to successfully plan the winter period of rest at school and the schedule of their holidays, parents should know the schedule for the New Year holidays for 2019-2020 and the dates when their children's studies begin. So they can adjust the time of their holidays and other events to the period of rest of schoolchildren. At this time, you can go on a trip with the whole family, to the country, plan trips to museums, theaters and other entertainment programs.

Holidays aren't just for kids. This is a wonderful and long-awaited time, which always passes incredibly quickly and, often, very brightly, is also accessible to adult citizens of Russia. Every year, at the legislative level, the country's authorities decide when and how many days the inhabitants of the state will have the opportunity to take a break from everyday work. As a rule, such a calendar of holidays and days off applies only to officially arranged citizens working in the public sector of the labor market, and this also applies to schoolchildren and students.

Holidays, as well as the time of holidays common to all, are determined by the Labor Code Russian Federation. According to this state document, in January 2020 we will have a rest according to the wording, which is enshrined in the Labor Code and is called "New Year holidays". This concept includes numbers from January 1st to January 8th inclusive. Such general rule has been operating on the territory of our country since 2012 and suits our fellow citizens completely. True, some servants of the people are trying to introduce an initiative to extend the period of holidays and add December 31 to them. But so far this amendment has not officially passed, and we will rest in accordance with the Labor Code.

In 2019-2020, the New Year will begin, as always - on the night of January 1, 2020. Russians will have the opportunity not to go to work from January 1 to January 8, inclusive. The beloved Old New Year will fall in 2020 at the beginning of the week, and therefore, here the inhabitants of Russia will not have the opportunity to relax and unwind. So, if you adhere to the tradition of celebrating this controversial but fun day, then be patient and wait until the end of the working day on January 13th. And remember that on January 14 you will have to go back to work in the morning, in this sense, Russian legislation did not provide for relief for citizens.

New Year's calendar of working and days off for the New Year 2020

The days when the whole family can enjoy a relaxing holiday in the month of January are the longest, and therefore long-awaited. In the coming year 2020, no exceptions are foreseen in this sense. Citizens of Russia are planning various trips with the whole family for these days. This time really gives people an atmosphere of kindness and family warmth. The New Year holidays are like a little vacation that people really cherish and carefully plan.

The first of January falls in the middle of the week, it will be Wednesday. New Year holidays will last from this day until January 8 inclusive. But on January 4 and 5, which fell on Saturday and Sunday in the calendar, in the future they will definitely regain the status of a full-fledged holiday weekend. They will be rescheduled for another time. So far, there is no exact information on how the authorities will dispose of these days off. Perhaps the period of the New Year holidays will be extended, and we will return to work not on January 9, but only on January 11. In this case, the New Year holidays 2020 will become incredibly large. Another option is that this couple of days will move to May and will complement the weekend period as part of the May Day holiday, or they will add two days to Victory Day. In any case, the Russians should not worry, people will definitely get their legal holidays, the Labor Code of the Russian Federation simply will not allow other scenarios.

If we talk about the production calendar, then everything depends on the specific organization. In many areas of production and services, there is an irregular working day, where people work for 12 hours or even days. For these categories of the working population, these features must be taken into account when drawing up the corresponding calendar plan. In general, in the country, with a 5-day working week, when a person works 8 hours every day, it is possible to determine the following features of accounting for working and non-working time in the first month of 2020.

In January 2020, the total number of days is 31. Official working days in January are 17. The number of non-working days is 14. Transfers of holidays to other dates are 2 (January 4 and 5).

Where to go to relax on vacation?

Where to go in Russia in winter? When the long ones come the winter vacation, many parents have a question: where to go or go with a child so that he is interested, so that he does not spend all his holidays at the TV or computer. Of course, a mass is organized for children, but I would like variety, so that not only Christmas trees, and for children to take a walk in the fresh air.

Eat interesting places, where you can go with children from Moscow or the cities of the Moscow region. This is the reindeer farm "Reindeer", which is located in the village of Antsifirovo, Orekhovo-Zuevsky district, not far from the city of Yegoryevsk.

The farm is located right in the forest, among beautiful snow-covered forests and fields. Children will have a lot of fun sledding on a real reindeer team through a snowy field.

Fun holidays for schoolchildren for the New Year 2020

Modern children are the same boys and girls as 10 years ago, but with some differences. And this is understandable - when times change, it is the children who are the first to pick up the wind of change. Today, guys still love to communicate, have fun, make plans and fool around, as before. Only the methods have changed a little. These days most older guys school age communicate, get acquainted, make friends, find entertainment on the Internet.

But what about the holidays? How do today's children prefer to spend their weekends, especially when the holiday period lasts as long as during the winter holidays? Among the dominant entertainment for schoolchildren during the New Year holidays, the following options can be distinguished:

schoolchildren create New Year chats on the Internet and communicate with peers on a variety of topics;

• are engaged in photography, because on New Year's holidays there are many wonderful places and scenery against which your selfie will look very attractive. After that, most often the guys arrange secret competitions for best photo on Instagram and other virtual networks;
• play computer games over the network when the competitions are held with real people;
• if, nevertheless, children get tired of surfing the Internet, then they choose for themselves a sports and entertainment type of leisure. This includes slides, skating rinks, ski bases and so on;
• visiting cinemas, since during the New Year holidays, as a rule, a huge number of movie premieres come out, both foreign and domestic directors;
• the organization of the so-called "kvartirniki", when the parents went to relatives, and the children invite friends to their home for a festive party.

Exciting winter holidays 2019-2020 for students

The New Year will come very soon, the session and exams are behind us and now it's time for students to have a good rest and gain strength before the next one study period. What to do in such a long vacation, which gives us the state in early January? Sitting in front of the TV all day eating salads is perhaps not the brightest prospect, especially for young people.

There are a lot of options for spending a useful and exciting holiday weekend. The main thing is not to get lost in this diversity, but to draw up a more or less clear plan and try to stick to it.

Who are students? These people are already quite adults, but in fact most of them are still real children! And therefore, the image of spending leisure time in the student environment is something between children's fun and adult leisure. During the New Year holidays for students of all ages we offer the following options for activities:

• a trip to the country of your dreams;
• trip to the mountains in the company of like-minded people;
• meetings with old friends, classmates and classmates;
• organization of sports activities, for example, the option to gather friends, rent laser tag equipment and go to the nearest forest for a true adrenaline rush;
• a trip to the nightclubs of your city;
• participation in various master classes and quests;
• a trip to a ski resort;
• visit memorable places hometown and the region in which he was born and raised;
• going to the theater or cinema;
• spending evenings in a coffee shop in the company of a loved one;

See how the Russians spent their winter holidays on New Year's holidays 2019 in the video:

To plan a vacation in advance, outline a leisure plan and see all your loved ones - every Russian tries to do all this during the New Year holidays. To make it easier to cope with the tasks, you can now familiarize yourself and find out how to relax in Russia for the New Year 2018, and how many New Year's weekends and holidays await us.

How to relax on New Year's holidays 2018

According to the proposal of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation, to postpone the weekend in 2018, you can now find out exactly how long the New Year holidays will last. The fact is that in the coming year, the New Year's Day 2018 falls on the night from Sunday to Monday. This wonderful combination of circumstances will help to catch up with all the pre-holiday preparations, even for those who work on a six-day week.

Thus, it will be possible to prepare for the New Year 2018 from Saturday December 30, since it is from this date that the official New Year holidays begin, which will last until January 8 inclusive (see the calendar below).

Official New Year holidays in 2018

Based on the draft resolution of the Russian Government and in particular the Federal Ministry of Labor, the schedule of days off and working dates for the upcoming New Year period will be as follows: starting from December 30 to January 8 inclusive - New Year holidays will take place, so the duration of the New Year holidays this year will be 10 days, which is 1 day more than in 2017.

Thus, in January 2018, from the 31st calendar day, there will be 17 working days, while there will be 14 days off and holidays this month.

Rescheduling holidays in January

For a more rational use of time, the highest authorities made the following decision: due to the fact that January 6 falls on Saturday (and according to the law this day belongs to New Year holidays and is considered non-working), it is postponed to March 9. The postponement of weekends and holidays described above will not be the only one for January 2018. Due to the fact that January 7 - Christmas, is included in and falls on a calendar day off - Sunday, there will be another shift in the production calendar. In this case, the day off on January 7th is moved to May 2nd.

The question may arise: how are such movements of holiday dates legalized in the production calendar? The answer can be found by referring to the legislation of the Russian Federation, which says that in the case when Public Holiday falls on a calendar holiday (that is, Saturday or Sunday), it is automatically transferred to the nearby Monday or other convenient date. This date is negotiated at the highest level and finally established by adopting the relevant act and promulgating it.

New Year 2018: holidays and weekends

On January 7, 2018, Russia will celebrate the second most important holiday in Orthodoxy (after Easter) - Christmas, this day will also be non-working.

It may seem that our country is almost the only one in the world that has such a long rest for the New Year. In many states, non-working days are several times less. In Russia, this trend has developed historically. Thanks to the innovations of Peter the Great, the first celebration of the New Year took place, which was shifted in the future due to the adoption of a new calendar. This gave rise to the first ones, which are now so loved by both children and adults.

The schedule for the weekend in late December and early January is about the same. This means that this year is unlikely to be a large number of any changes related to the new calendar.

This also means that you can start planning your winter holidays very soon.

Usually, citizens are given approximately one week of vacation. This is quite enough to have a great time, no matter how long your working day or working week is, because the main advantage of the winter holidays that have already become traditional is that you no longer need to rest for 2 or only 3 days in a row.

This time you will have a full vacation, like a child. Of course, the winter holidays will not last 3 months, however, the allocated period may be quite enough to have a great time.

Who is planning winter holidays 2018?

Usually, the Ministry of Labor of Russia is in charge of planning such vacations. This means that the employees of this ministry are developing a plan according to which we can rest for as long as possible. So, what will the vacation schedule look like this winter?

Weekends in January, which have already become a long-standing tradition, allow many residents to fully enjoy all the delights of winter. This is a great time to have a good rest before a difficult working year and gain strength in order to work hard after all the days off. So, this time the holidays start on December 30th. It will be Saturday.

December 31 will also be a day off, because it is Sunday. From January 1 to January 5 there will also be days off, and January 6 will be a day off for those who work a five-day work week. January 7th and 8th will also be holidays.

We can say that the holidays for this year will indeed be quite long, so everyone will be able to relax in such a way as to gain strength before the working week, which will begin on January 9th.

How is the schedule this year?

Traditionally, the weekend schedule is drawn up taking into account Article 112 Labor Code RF.

It is worth noting that some changes are possible in the current schedule, so it is likely that this schedule will be slightly adjusted after the approval of the resolution “On the postponement of holidays in 2018.”

How can you spend your winter holidays?

Given the fact that this year the holidays will be really long, you can try to go somewhere on vacation. Many people prefer to spend their winter holidays in warm countries or at least corners of the country. Others think that The best way to spend time is to spend it in the family circle.

This is quite normal, because not everyone wants to travel far from their home. It is also worth noting that most Russians spend their winter holidays at home in family circle, because such a long weekend is a great opportunity to find time for your closest people.

How do we relax

Small changes in the weekend calendar can also be associated with the peculiarities of the field of activity where you work. Also, changes in the weekend calendar are found in private companies, which can completely ignore such a long vacation.

It should be understood that not every private entrepreneur can afford such a long vacation, so the official weekend calendar does not mean that literally the whole country will have a rest at this time of the year.

It is likely that all or almost all government organizations will indeed go on vacation at this time, but this does not mean that gas stations and hospitals will not work at this time. If this were not so, then absolute chaos would begin in the country. In connection with this fact, we can remind you of the need to soberly assess your physical capabilities.

As you know, during the January holidays, many citizens go to winter resorts for the first time and often return home with numerous fractures and abrasions. This is a very unpleasant fact, so in order to avoid any injuries during the holidays, at least elementary precautions should be observed.

10 days of vacation!

In total, we get as many as 10 days off. This is quite a lot, and frankly speaking, it is a lot, so it is worth trying to spend such a long vacation with benefit, although many will be much more pleasant just to lie in bed and get a good rest before starting their official duties.

Well, our life consists of work and weekends, so it's no surprise that many people are so happy to be able to take a whole 10 days off.
