6

Why do you use 45 working weeks for commute calculations?

Sweden's Semesterlagen guarantees a statutory minimum of 25 working days of paid annual leave, one of the stronger leave floors modelled on this site, plus around 9 of its 13 public holidays ("röda dagar") falling on working days in 2026. That brings the typical non-working total to around 6.8 weeks per year, leaving 45 working weeks. Using 45 working weeks ensures that commute costs and time calculations only apply to weeks when you actually travel to the office.
