Holidays in November of the year. November holidays

15.08.2016

November is the month that ends autumn. In addition to standard weekends (Saturdays and Sundays), it gives Russians who work a five-day week the opportunity to take a kind of mini-vacation - after all, this month on November 4th we celebrate national unity. The holiday of November 4 is still just “gaining momentum”; it is just over a decade old: we have been celebrating it since 2004. On this day, November 4, 400 years ago, Minin and Pozharsky, becoming the head of the people's militia, liberated Moscow from Polish invaders.

We have decided on National Unity Day. What else will November please us with? How long and how do we work and rest in November 2016?

Weekends and holidays in November 2016

In 2016, National Unity Day falls on Friday, and therefore we will rest for 3 whole days in a row - from Friday to Sunday. There will be no postponements, everything will go according to the calendar. Don't forget: on the eve of a long weekend, every person (except those who work on a rotational basis or in shifts) has the legal right to leave workplace a full hour earlier than usual. If the management of your company accidentally forgot about this fact, it is worth tactfully reminding them.

In addition to the “mini-vacations”, in November Russians will have 6 usual Saturdays and Sundays free from work. And there will be 21 working days. Those who didn’t have enough National Unity Day can arrange a series of additional holidays. On the weekends in November, you can rightfully celebrate some more dates.

So, on November 5, everyone can join world day men. Since November 5th is Saturday, you can celebrate the important date on a grand scale, but better - without excessive abuse.

November 20 (this is Saturday) - congratulate all children, both small and large. You can give them gifts, take them to the cinema to see cartoons, or just play their favorite games. Communication with parents is the most important thing for a child, to whom parents are often unable to pay much attention because they are always busy. Make sure that the day dedicated to children is memorable for them for a long time!

November 27 (this is the last Sunday in November) is a holiday that recently came to Russia. It is called Mother's Day. This Sunday, we must wholeheartedly congratulate and thank our mothers, who managed to raise their children in the difficult conditions of Russian reality. Go visit them and give them a gift beautiful bouquet, and let this Sunday become the best day of November for your family!

November is a short month (only 30 days), but there are plenty of holidays. And even though only November 4 is an official holiday, you can turn almost any Saturday or Sunday into yours family celebration. As you can see, there are plenty of dates “with a reason”!

Last month autumn period is always marked by a sharp cold snap and the approach of the most popular holiday in the CIS - the New Year. How do we relax in November? IN given month On regular working days there is one officially designated holiday - National Unity Day on November 4th, which is officially considered a non-working day.

Try suddenly asking your friends what exactly we celebrate in November. The thoughtful answer “November holidays” is heard most often. Indeed, four renamings in twenty years can confuse anyone. The older generation often remembers the anniversary of the October Revolution (which was celebrated in November... once upon a time in an English special school, half the lesson was spent explaining this calendar confusion to foreign guests).

The correct name of the holiday - “National Unity Day” - does not immediately come to mind, and very few people are able to tell the story of the liberation of Moscow by the Minins and Pozharskys in 1612 from the Polish occupiers. But, regardless of the name, November holidays are always remembered in the plural; people have become accustomed to two holidays in November since 1927. But…
What a great time we had the year before last! Two days off, a day rescheduled, a holiday... four days off, three working days and again two days off... Alas, the weekend schedule for the November holidays of 2016 is a little sadder.

“National Unity Day” – the fourth of November – falls on a Friday in 2016. The total is:
October 31, November 1-2(Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday) – we work as usual,
the 3rd of November(Thursday) – the pre-holiday day shortened by an hour,
November 4- let's celebrate,
November 5-6– legal holidays; → look at the calendar:

This is how November turned out. All possible transfers holidays, coinciding with the weekend, have already been exhausted.

In general, with these transfers it turns out interesting story. In 1992, when the new Labor Code of the Russian Federation was adopted, almost all holiday dates fell on Saturday and Sunday. Then Article 112 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation was adopted, which established the mandatory provision of additional days off for holidays that coincided with Saturday or Sunday. Every year, deputies approve the schedule of days off; and every time there are dissatisfied comments. It seems that the people's representatives have become tired of this after twenty years.
Last year, a group of deputies from Tatarstan took the initiative to cancel the postponement of holidays that coincided with weekends. The main argument is economic: during the holidays, owners of private enterprises and the country’s economy as a whole suffer significant losses. This is true, especially in January - almost half a month in the country is the “down season”.
The second argument the deputies cite is to increase the list of public holidays and public holidays. The argument is not very clear. Just look at the accountant’s calendar and we will see that in 1992 there were twenty public holidays, in 2014 there were nineteen. The list and dates of holidays have changed, but there is no quantitative difference.

However, compared with other countries, we still live very well. For comparison, in the Netherlands there are only six national holidays, in the USA there are ten, in Austria, England, France and Germany there are as many as 13 such days! Still, they don’t reach our 20 days. So maybe it would be nice to shrink a little?
It is not known whether deputies will accept the proposal to cancel the postponement of holidays that coincide with weekends, but we will be able to try on such a life in November 2016. A lonely day off on November 4 in the middle of the work week and no long November holidays. Shall we try?
