## Purpose

Checks a date against the Saturday-Sunday weekend baseline and exact 2026-2026 authority events. Distinguishes 11 rest-day holidays from five named holidays without statutory rest in 2026.

**Use when:** You need a deterministic Slovakia Slovakia 2026 national statutory rest-day calendar result.

**Do not use when:** Pinned Slovakia 2026 statutory rest-day layer over an explicitly declared Monday-Friday planning baseline, not an individual roster. The holidays on May 8 and September 15 are not statutory rest days in 2026; September 1, October 28 and November 17 are state holidays without rest under section 2(3). Do not infer substitute Mondays, payroll premiums, leave rights, retail closures, shift, bank, school, employer or future-year schedules. Later legal changes require a new snapshot.

## Example user requests

- Slovakia: May 8 is a named holiday but a working date.
- Slovakia: Good Friday.
- Slovakia: November 17 is not statutory rest.


## Input

| Field | Type | Unit | Description |

| `holiday_names` | string_list |  | Events applying on the date. |
| `holiday_kinds` | string_list |  | Authority event classifications. |
| `holiday_details` | list |  | Structured event details, including partial-day notes where published. |
| `calendar_scope` | string |  | Slovakia 2026 national statutory rest-day calendar |
| `holiday_policy` | string |  | Act_241_1993_sections_1_2_4b_2026 |

## Formula

`working = weekday outside the declared weekly rest and outside statutory_rest_holiday dates`

Apply Saturday-Sunday planning rest plus only statutory_rest_holiday events; retain named non-rest events as evidence without subtracting them.

## Limitations

Pinned Slovakia 2026 statutory rest-day layer over an explicitly declared Monday-Friday planning baseline, not an individual roster. The holidays on May 8 and September 15 are not statutory rest days in 2026; September 1, October 28 and November 17 are state holidays without rest under section 2(3). Do not infer substitute Mondays, payroll premiums, leave rights, retail closures, shift, bank, school, employer or future-year schedules. Later legal changes require a new snapshot. Apply Saturday-Sunday planning rest plus only statutory_rest_holiday events; retain named non-rest events as evidence without subtracting them. All values are computed from the formula above; no measurement or live data is involved.

## FAQ

**Does every named Slovak holiday imply a day off?**

No. Five retained holiday dates are not statutory rest days in this 2026 package. The distinction is explicit in holiday_rest_status.

**Are payroll and individual schedules computed?**

No. Holiday pay, leave rights and actual rosters are separate from the statutory-rest classification.
