A quick recap: Regular holidays vs. special non-working days vs. additional special non-working days

Regular holidays are set dates with historical or cultural significance, usually involving full non-working status and pay benefits. Special Non-Working Days are days off, typically to honour specific events or traditions, offering more flexible pay rules and no compensation for non-work. Additional Special Non-Working Days are extra days designated by the government, usually to extend holiday periods or mark special occasions, with similar pay rules to Special Non-Working Days but less regularity. Each type of day differs in terms of significance, compensation, and occurrence.
