## Steps

1. Open **Settings → Public holidays**.
2. Check the rule **Public holidays count as paid rest days**: an unworked holiday is paid and does not count as an absence.
3. Read the year's list; click **Manage public holidays** to change year, fix a date, delete a day or **Add** one specific to the company.
