Add Greece's 2026 holidays to your team calendar
Instead of copying these dates into a spreadsheet, let Absenca import them automatically. Public holidays are excluded from leave balances, shown on the team calendar, and kept per office location — so a team in Greece and one elsewhere each get the right days. Free for up to 15 people.
Planning leave around public holidays
Public holidays are the key to stretching annual leave. By booking time off next to a holiday — a "bridge day" — your team can turn a few days of leave into a long break. Absenca highlights these opportunities automatically and warns you when too many people are off at once, so coverage never slips around popular holiday periods.
