Annual leave calculator
How many working days a holiday actually costs you, how many days you are owed if you were hired mid-year, and which days are public holidays. The same arithmetic Fivanto uses when it deducts days from a real balance. No account, no email.
What a date range costs
Pick the period; I tell you how many working days it takes off your allowance.

- Of which public holidays—
Weekends and public holidays do not come out of your allowance.
How many days I am owed
If you were hired mid-year, leave is granted proportionally.
Unpaid leave and other contract suspensions do not count as work performed, so they reduce the days you are entitled to. Do not put sick leave here: the Labour Code, art. 145(4), counts it as work performed — as it does maternity leave, maternal risk leave and leave to care for a sick child.

These are the days for the whole year, not what you have accrued so far. Leave is granted for the year, proportionally to the period you are employed — you may take them any time before year end. The proportion is computed on calendar days, not whole months, and rounding is up, in the employee's favour.
How many days of annual leave am I owed?
At least 20 working days a year, under Article 145 of the Romanian Labour Code. A collective or individual contract may grant more — 21 days is the most common in practice. It cannot go below 20 by any agreement.
Do public holidays come out of my leave?
No. Annual leave is counted in working days, and a public holiday is not a working day. A week of leave that includes a public holiday costs you one day less.
What if a public holiday falls on a Saturday?
It is lost. Romanian law does not move the day off to the next working day, unlike some other countries. The list above marks the ones that fall on a weekend.
I was hired in March. How many days this year?
Proportionally to the period worked, under Article 145(2). The proportion is computed on calendar days, not whole months: being hired on 15 March gives you more than being hired on 1 April.
Where the numbers come from
Working days are counted with the same code that deducts days from a real balance inside Fivanto. Public holidays follow Article 139 of the Labour Code, with the movable ones derived from Orthodox Easter — so they shift correctly from year to year.
