Workdays in a Month Calculator
Count the weekdays and weekend days in any month.
How many working days this month?
Payroll, billing, and capacity planning all hinge on how many working days a month holds, and it shifts from month to month. This tool counts the weekdays and weekend days in any month and year.
A typical month has around 21 or 22 weekdays, but it varies with how the weekends fall. Enter a month and year to get the exact split, then subtract any public holidays that apply to you.
Practical and private
It walks the month in your browser and tallies the days, so nothing you enter is uploaded.
