The government has laid out the national holidays and collective leave for 2023.
Through a Joint Decree, it has been officially established that national holidays and collective leave in 2023 will total 24 days, consisting of 16 national holidays and eight days of mass leave.
The rules are contained in Joint Decree number 1006/2022, number 3/2022, and number 3/2022 which were signed by the Religion, Manpower, and Administrative Reform and Bureaucratic Reform Ministers on Tuesday, 11th October 2022.
The determination of national holidays and joint leave in 2023 is an effort to make work days more efficient and effective as well as providing guidelines for government and private agencies in implementing national holidays and collective leave for the next calendar year.
For work units or organisations in charge of basic services, the assignment of employees or workers on national holidays and collective leave in 2023 can be determined by them. This also includes direct services and basic services, such as public health centres and hospitals, institutions that provide telecommunications services, electricity companies, drinking water providers, fire fighting, security and order, banking, transportation, and other similar sectors.
