After Labor Day, celebrated on May 1, there are still six holidays and one optional point in all in 2022. However, there will be little chance of extending the break, as many dates fall on Wednesdays or weekends. Check now which national holidays still remain this year.

Upcoming holidays this year
Not everyone knows, but every year, in December, the Ministry of Economy (ME) releases a list informing which holidays will be for next year. From this, the workers can start planning to take advantage of the long-awaited rest days. Check below the holidays that we still have this year.
- Corpus Christi will be on June 16 (Thursday – optional point)
- Independence of Brazil will be on September 7 (Wednesday)
- Our Lady's Day Aparecida will be on October 12 (Wednesday)
- Public servant day will be on October 28 (Friday)
- All Souls will be on November 2 (Wednesday)
- Proclamation of the Republic will be on November 15 (Tuesday)
- Christmas will be on December 25th (Sunday)
It should be remembered that Corpus Christi day is actually an optional point, not a holiday. Therefore, companies must define whether employees will have time off on the date or not.
The long holidays, which everyone loves, were the most affected by the 2022 calendar, since the only occurrence of this long-awaited occasion was on April 15th, a Friday. Now all that remains is the holiday of the Proclamation of the Republic, on November 15, which will be a Tuesday.
Write down the dates very carefully, because since they won't be present in a large quantity, that at least you can plan to take a longer trip or arrange a good celebration for the day.
Absence of long holidays is bad for trade and tourism
The lack of “amendments” is not only negative for those who want to rest, as workers who work in tourist spots are a little more distant from urban centers also receive the news with dismay, due to the forecast of having a smaller number of tourists this year.
Operation of services
In general, essential services continue to operate on holidays, such as emergency health care, for example. However, cities usually establish different routines for these days, with specific times.
With that in mind, you should pay attention to the newspapers when the holidays are approaching to know how things will work on the dates and, if you need any service, you will already have in mind what to do.
