Brazil

I lived in Brazil and I can tell that, even though the Carnaval Monday and Tuesday are not real holidays, they are bank holidays federally enforced. I'll update the page with that reference. Pedro Angelini (talk) 22:06, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Bank Holiday is just what they call Public Holidays in The UK. If they are federsly mandated Public Holidays how are they not real holidays, what you are saying makes no sense- todo bom meu. 124.170.100.79 (talk) 22:16, 3 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

public holidays- secular and religious observance.

The intro only makes reference to public holidays being observance of events in a counties history? As far as I know Jesus Christ isn't from Australia and there are a number of public holidays in observance of his, birth, crusifiction, death and supposed reserection. Is this just a linguestic confussion on what 'holiday' means? Public holiday is what they call a bank holiday in the UK- In australia I remember ther being days when the banks and post offices(often the same building and workers), but in other industries people didn't get paid double time and half for working on those days. In the US they refer to days of odservance which are not mandated in labour law as holidays- but they tink it's a vacation when one doesn't travel anywhere. Public Holidays are a part of labour law, you know like the 8 hour day and 5 day working week. 124.170.100.79 (talk) 08:22, 4 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
