Civil Servants' Day is observed in Brazil on October 28 every year. This holiday is a day off for civil servants and bank employees, allowing them to spend time with their families. The holiday has a fixed date, but the Brazilian government may decide to move it to the nearest Friday or Monday to create a longer weekend. Civil servants in Brazil work across the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of the Federal Government, as well as at the state and municipal levels. Their role is significant in the political, economic, and cultural life of the country, which is why this day is recognized as a public holiday.
