Austrian context

One concept, state-specific dates

Planning for Easter break remains a distinct concept in Austria. Public holidays can extend this school-free period, but its school dates and employment leave remain separate questions.

Exception check

Check the applicable calendar

School-specific dates

Federal-state calendars and school-autonomous days can differ from the general range.

Leave remains separate

Public holidays such as Easter Monday or Whit Monday do not automatically create leave from work.

Current edition

Planning context

The Easter school break ends on the Easter Monday public holiday. Good Friday is school-free but a normal working day for many employees, so leave, childcare and return travel for the school restart need separate coordination.
