According to the Labor Code adopted in 2025, this day is considered a holiday but is not a day off.
As for March 8, International Women's Day this year falls on a Sunday, but March 9 will also be a working day. The reason is that there are no longer provisions for transferring holidays that fall on weekends.
Thus, no additional days off will be provided in connection with the celebration of Nowruz, which this year falls on a Saturday.
However, an additional day off is expected in March due to the holiday of Orozо Aita, which will be celebrated on March 19 (Thursday) or March 20 (Friday), depending on the lunar calendar.
