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.
Wednesday 6 March 2030 sits at the midpoint of the standard working week, between Monday's start and Friday's finish. Australians commonly call this point in the week hump day, marking the transition from the first half of the working week to the second, with two working days already complete and two still remaining before the weekend begins.
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 6 March. Interstate businesses need to check more than one state's list before setting a national deadline.
