An analysis of public holidays and official leave days as a percentage of total available workdays in a year indicates that Nigerian workers spend approximately 15.7% of their time away from work.
This is according to a review conducted by Nairametrics Research, which relied on officially declared public holidays and statutory annual leave entitlements.
In a typical calendar year with 261 potential working days excluding weekends, Nigerians are entitled to between 41 to 46 days off.
