Ukrainians will have no extra day off for Easter in 2023
One of the most favorite holidays of Ukrainians, Easter, is coming soon. For the second year in a row, we will celebrate this day in the midst of a full-scale war.
In 2023, Orthodox believers will celebrate Easter on April 16, and Catholics will celebrate it on April 9. OBOZREVATEL investigated whether Ukrainians will have additional days off and what the Labor Code says about this.
Every year Easter is celebrated on a different date. This is due to the period of the first full moon after the vernal equinox. Believers observe Lent, which lasts 7 weeks. This year, the fast began on February 27 and will end on April 16.
Like last year, Ukrainians will not have the usual three days off due to martial law, which was extended for another 3 months on February 19, until May 18. Despite the fact that Article 73 of the Labor Code provides for an additional day off on the Monday after Easter, the war has made adjustments to life.
In 2023, April 17 will not be a day off. However, the employer, at its discretion and at its own expense, may provide employees with an additional day off - it will not contradict the law.
Earlier, OBOZREVATEL wrote about the traditions of Easter among Orthodox Christians, and also called the date of the holiday in 2030.
