Volgograd residents warned about the reduced working day on November 3
This was reported by the first Deputy Chairman of the Duma Committee on labor and social policy Svetlana Bessarab
Work on shift schedule before the holiday is reduced by an hour in the same way as with a normal schedule.
“Shift workers are also subject to the labour code. The shift, if it directly precedes the festive day, is reduced by one hour, the deputy said in a conversation with RIA.
If it is impossible to reduce the shift due to the peculiarities of production, the employee has the right to choose an increased payment or other rest time. Such payment is calculated by analogy with overtime work.
National Unity Day is celebrated on November 4. In 2026, the holiday falls on Wednesday, so on November 3 the working day will be reduced by an hour.
