1. What is the Working Days Till Retirement Calculator?

The Working Days Till Retirement Calculator estimates the number of working days remaining until your planned retirement age, accounting for annual holidays and time off.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

Where:

• \( Current Age \) — Your current age in years
• \( Retirement Age \) — Your planned retirement age in years
• \( Holidays \) — Total holidays and time off days per year
• 260 — Standard working days per year (52 weeks × 5 days)

Explanation: The calculation multiplies the remaining working years by 260 standard working days per year, then subtracts the total holidays over that period.

3. Importance of Retirement Planning

Details: Understanding your remaining working days helps with financial planning, career goal setting, and preparing for a smooth transition to retirement.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter your current age, planned retirement age, and average holidays per year. All values must be valid (current age < retirement age, holidays ≥ 0).
