January 2, January 9 and August 28, 2015, which fall on Fridays, will be nonworking days for budget-funded employees. Instead, they will work on January 17, January 31 and August 22, which fall on Saturdays, for these days. Such a decision is to be approved by the Government in its December 3 meeting.
As a result, the budget-funded employees will have a four-day New Year vacation (January 1, 2, 3, and 4) and a five-day vacation on Christmas, observed according to the old calendar (January 7, 8, 9, 10, and 11).
At the end of summer, when there are celebrated the Independence Day and the Our Language Day, the budget-funded employees will also rest for five days (August 27, 28, 29, 30, and 31).
