Labour Day falls on the first Monday of March in Western Australia and on the second Monday of March in Victoria and Tasmania. New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, the Northern Territory and the ACT do not hold a Labour Day public holiday in March at all, so the long weekend applies only in the three states that observe it on these dates.
A public holiday landing on a Monday produces a three-day weekend together with the preceding Saturday and Sunday, one of the two most common long-weekend patterns on the Australian calendar. Monday 25 March 2030 falls on this day of the week, at the start of a standard five-day working stretch that runs through to Friday of the same 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 25 March. Interstate businesses need to check more than one state's list before setting a national deadline.
