National Statistical Committee Worker’s Day is observed in Belarus every August 23. Established in 1998 by a decree from President Alexander Lukashenko, this professional holiday commemorates the anniversary of the Central Bureau of Statistics, founded in 1932. The day recognizes the contributions of employees working within the National Statistical Committee, which has undergone several transformations since its inception, including its evolution from the State Committee of Statistics in 1991 to its current form in 2008. On this day, employees receive congratulations from authorities, and distinguished workers are awarded prizes for their contributions. The holiday serves to honor the vital role of statistical professionals in the country.
