How the planner works
The planner looks for holidays that fall on one of your working days and connects them with the weekend or other holidays using as few days of leave as possible. Only options where you get at least twice as many days off as days of leave used are shown.
Under employment law, cantonal rest days are working days. If you work on these days, switch them off above. Half holidays and municipal holidays are not counted. There is no entitlement to bridge days: whether you get the day off depends on your employment contract, staff regulations or collective labour agreement.
