What This Calculator Does

When people count working days, they usually need more than a single number. They want to know which dates were counted, which ones were removed as weekends, and which ones were excluded because of custom holidays. This working days calculator is built to show both the total and the reasoning behind it.

You enter a start date and end date, choose whether weekends should be excluded, decide whether the start and end dates count, and manually add holiday dates if needed. The page then shows the number of working days, total included days, weekend count, holiday count, and a day-by-day status table. That makes it useful for project planning, delivery windows, leave checks, service periods, and other custom-rule scenarios.

When to Use It

• You need to count how many working days fall inside a date range.
• You want explicit control over whether the start and end dates count.
• You need to exclude a few company holidays, school breaks, or custom shutdown dates.
• You want to inspect each individual date when the total seems surprising.

Inputs Explained

Start Date and End Date

These dates define the range you want to count. The page requires the end date to be the same as or later than the start date.

Exclude Weekends

When this is enabled, Saturdays and Sundays are treated as non-working days. That matches many standard office schedules.
