How to read the planner

Total days off includes configured weekend days, public holidays and any annual leave days shown in the result. Efficiency is total days off divided by annual leave days; no-leave breaks show the full break length.

The planner uses public holidays from the central dataset and does not assume a universal weekend. It does not account for employer shutdowns, rostered days off or school-only student-free days.
