The State Government is proposing changes to the public holiday calendar that could see Western Australian's have two more days off a year.
WA currently has the lowest number of public holidays in the nation with 11, while Victoria, the Northern Territory and the ACT have 13.
The State Government is now considering adding a public holiday in September while also including Easter Saturday as a public holiday.
Other changes include aligning Labour Day and the King's Birthday to the eastern states celebrations and moving WA Day from June to November to avoid the winter weather.
Any changes however won't come into effect until 2027 at the earliest.
“Western Australia is the engine room of the national economy, and I want to keep it that way," Premier Roger Cook said.
“This is why we are considering aligning WA public holidays with other states and territories to boost productivity and make life easier for WA businesses.
“It’s also important that WA workers receive similar benefits to what workers receive in other states, because that’s the right thing to do.
“There is a lot to celebrate about WA, including our spirit, diverse culture and achievements, so we are keen to hear from the community about any new opportunities to do this."
A four-week feedback period is now open for the community, businesses and peak bodies to have their say on the proposed changes.
