What this value means

2027 EXTENSION: 2027 dates are the statutory calendar carried forward — fixed dates keep their date; Western-Easter feasts computed for Easter Sunday 28 March 2027; Sunday-formula days computed for the 2027 calendar. Estonia applies NO weekend substitution — holidays falling on Saturday/Sunday are not moved. Related rule: the working day preceding New Year's Day, Independence Day (24 Feb), Victory Day (23 Jun) and Christmas Eve is shortened by 3 hours (Employment Contracts Act s.53); work on public holidays is paid at 2x.
