Labour Day falls on the first Monday of October in New South Wales, South Australia and the ACT, the only three jurisdictions observing the holiday on this date. 15 October 2030 carries this public holiday in those three states, with every other state and territory working through an ordinary day.
Shift rosters in retail, hospitality, healthcare and emergency services regularly schedule staff on Tuesdays as part of rotating patterns that do not follow the standard Monday-to-Friday week. Tuesday 15 October 2030 falls within this rostering system for shift-based industries, separate from the standard working-day count above that assumes a five-day week.
The working-day count on this page excludes both weekend days and any public holiday declared for the state selected, so the same date in 2030 can show a different total depending on which state's calendar applies to 15 October. Interstate businesses need to check more than one state's list before setting a national deadline.
