How long does one day last? According to astrologers, in a day the Earth makes exactly one turn around its axis. And if you count, how many hours are there in a month? What about the minutes? Let's consider this question in more detail.
Calculation of the number of hours in one month
If a day is measured by the revolutions of the globe around itself, then a month is a unit of measurement that counts the revolutions of the Moon - the satellite of the Earth. To answer the question “how many hours are there in a month?”, First of all, you need to find out how many days are in it. For example, in April, only 30 days, and in January - 31. However, there is always 24 hours in a day.
So, it turns out that in April: 30 x 24 = 720 hours. And in January, 31 days. Accordingly, there will be more hours in it: 31 x 24 = 744 hours. As a result, a person has more time in January than in April.
Of course, if you consider February as a month and not in a leap year, then the indicators will come out much less, because it only has 28 days or 672 hours.
The number of minutes and seconds in one month
On the Internet, you can now find calculators that can immediately convert almost any data and turn one unit of measurement into another: minutes to hours, kilograms to pounds, euros to dollars, etc.
If we go further and ask how many hours, minutes, seconds are in a month, then we get such indicators.
Months in which 30 days are April, June, September, and November. Total in one 30-day month:
- 720 hours = 30 days x 24 hours;
- 43,200 minutes = 720 hours x 60 minutes;
- 2 592 000 seconds = 43 200 minutes x 60 seconds.
And how many working hours are in a month?
The labor legislation of Russia established that a person cannot work more than 40 hours / week. In addition to working periods, rest periods must be established: a minimum of half an hour and a maximum of two hours. As a rule, the lunch break comes at 13:00 and lasts an hour. Total employee spends in the office from 9 to 18 hours.
That is, if you count for every day according to the five-day regime, it turns out 8 hours of work - this is a normalized working day. A month usually comes out on 21-23 business days. Total, on average, a person works approximately 160 hours / month.
This applies to those employees who have a shift working mode. Such professions include ambulance doctors who are on duty day and night, watchmen or employees of call centers and others. Usually they work not from Monday to Friday, but according to a shift schedule two in two, alternating days of rest and work.
It should be noted that for citizens of Russia from 14 to 16 years, the labor code provides only 24 hours / week, and from 16 to 18 years, the working week is no more than 36 hours.
If an employee works under conditions that are harmful or dangerous to his health, then 36 hours per month are also set for him by law. How many holidays will there be in 2018? Let's consider further.
Production calendar for calculating business days
To calculate working hours, a production calendar comes to the rescue, which is announced at the end of this year. For 2018, it was approved by the Government in October 2017. Such a calendar is very useful for employees in the field of accounting and staffing. For example, the accountant will have to accrue leave / sick leave for a certain month, or the personnel department will make a schedule for the next period. The calendar itself will help the employees choose the most suitable month for a vacation, because holidays are not paid by the organization for holidays.
So, in 2018, only 28 holidays, not counting the weekend. January holidays are the longest and last until the 8th day inclusive. Accordingly, there will be only 17 working days in this month. So how many hours are there in a month? - Normally, in January, a working citizen works 136 hours.
Also usually a very busy month is May with holidays in honor of Victory Day. In May in the coming 2018 year comes 20 working days, or 160 hours, which is quite a bit. The busiest in 2018 are August and October - each of them has 184 normalized working hours or 23 days.
