Pakistan has approximately 15-20 public holidays per year, including Islamic holidays that follow the lunar calendar. Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha are each celebrated over 3 days, making them the longest holiday periods. Exact dates for Islamic holidays depend on moon sighting and are officially confirmed only 1-2 days in advance. Pakistan Day (March 23) commemorates the Lahore Resolution of 1940, and Independence Day (August 14) marks independence from British India in 1947. The standard work week is Monday to Friday, though Saturday half-days are common in some sectors.
