Overview
- Peru’s official calendar lists Saturday, Nov. 1 as a national holiday for All Saints’ Day, and it does not add a non‑working Friday, Oct. 31, so no nationwide long weekend was created.
- Peruvian labor rules state that employees who work on Nov. 1 without compensatory rest must receive triple pay, with significant fines for employers that fail to comply.
- In Argentina’s Buenos Aires province, local asuetos were set for Monday, Oct. 27 in Alberti, Marcos Paz and 9 de Julio, Tuesday, Oct. 28 in Leandro N. Alem, and Friday, Oct. 31 in Benito Juárez, chiefly affecting public administration with private‑sector adherence optional.
- National authorities in Argentina reiterated that Monday, Oct. 27 is not a national holiday, so most of the country will observe a normal workday.
- In Mexico, the Ley Federal del Trabajo moves the Revolution Day rest to Monday, Nov. 17 as a nationwide day off, while Oct. 31, Nov. 1 and Nov. 2 are not statutory rest days even though SEP scheduled no classes on Friday, Oct. 31 for a school council session.
