Working days and hours in Poland, December 2076

December 2076 has 21 working days and a working time norm of 160 hours.

The norm is for a full-time job in the basic working time system. Calendar days this month: 31.

Public holidays

How the norm is worked out

The Polish Labour Code (art. 130) gives 8 hours for every Monday to Friday and takes off 8 hours for every public holiday not falling on a Sunday. This month: 23 × 8 h − 3 × 8 h = 160 h.

First working day: Tuesday, 1 December 2076. Last working day: Thursday, 31 December 2076.

Part-time norms

• 1/2 of full time: 80 h
• 3/4 of full time: 120 h
• 1/4 of full time: 40 h

Legal basis: art. 130 of the Polish Labour Code and the Act of 18 January 1951 on public holidays (Christmas Eve off since 2025). More: working days versus the working time norm.

Deadlines for this month

• Pay at the latest on Friday, 8 January 2077 (by the 10th of the next month; when that is a day off, the day before, art. 85 of the Labour Code).
• ZUS contributions and the PIT advance of a sole trader: by Wednesday, 20 January 2077.
• VAT and the JPK_V7M return for monthly filers: by Monday, 25 January 2077.
