ISO weeks run Monday to Sunday, and week 1 is the week with the first Thursday of the year, so the first days of January can still belong to the last week of the old year. Weekdays are Monday to Friday; public holidays are not taken out here, the business days figure above does that.

How the date is counted

Today is day zero, so the count starts yesterday. Every day counts, weekends and holidays included. The business days figure above is the stricter version: it skips Saturdays, Sundays and US federal holidays, so 7 business days reach back about 10 calendar days or more.

To count the days between two dates you pick yourself, use the days between dates calculator. Deadlines that only count working days are easier with the business days calculator.

Counting in hours instead of days? The hour pages show the clock time, for example 72 hours from now.
