Planning notes for France
Most French public holidays are national, while some regions and overseas territories can follow additional rules. Bridge-day planning is commonly relevant when a holiday falls on Tuesday or Thursday.
The planner focuses on dates in the available national holiday feed; workplace rules determine whether a bridge day is actually available as leave.
