There are 255 working days in Australia in 2027. That's calculated from 365 calendar days minus 104 weekend days and 6 public holidays that fall on a weekday. The remaining 5 public holidays land on weekends and don't reduce the working-day count.
Australia has 1938 working hours in 2027, based on the 38-hour statutory work week (7.6 hours per day × 255 working days). Source: Fair Work Act 2009 (Australia).
11 public holidays fall in 2027: New Year's Day (2027-01-01); Australia Day (2027-01-26); Good Friday (2027-03-26); Easter Saturday (2027-03-27); Easter Sunday (2027-03-28); Easter Monday (2027-03-29) and 5 more.
No — only nationwide public and bank holidays defined by Fair Work Act 2009 (Australia) are subtracted. Regional, observance, and optional holidays vary by state or canton and aren't included so the headline figure stays consistent for nationwide payroll, billing, and capacity-planning use.
