Working days are the days that can be legally worked (Monday to Saturday), they exclude Sundays and public holidays. Working days represent the days when the business is actually in operation (usually Monday to Friday).
Working days are taken into account for the calculation of paid holidays, while working days are taken into account in relations between companies and customers (eg for delivery times).

Working days: Definition
Working days are the days actually worked in the company, even if all the staff does not necessarily work on those days. They depend on the nature of each company's activity.
In Morocco, the working days of a company are generally from Monday to Friday but certain industrial or commercial activities may have 6/7 working days per week.
What is the difference between working day and business day?
Working days are generally taken into account for the calculation of paid leave and for any other count of days that the employer carries out for its employees (sickness, absence, etc.).
Thus, a week of paid vacation will represent 6 working days from Monday to Saturday even though the company's working days are only 5 days a week from Monday to Friday.
Knowledge of working days makes it possible to know the availability of a company, the delivery times or the performance of a service.
A contract can for example indicate that a service will be carried out within 2 working days, meaning that the days not worked by the company are not included in the count.
In short and in general:
working days are taken into account in the employer-employee social relations
working days are taken into account in company-customer reports
