That sounds similar to the UK system in that working days are mon - fri and weekend bankholidays roll over into the week (eg If Christmas Day is on a Sunday, Monday is a bank holiday). Compared to France where I work where Saturday can be counted as a work day (even if it isn't usually worked) and bankholidays that fall during the weekend aren't rolled over. In 2022 in the UK you could have taken 3 days and been off 25 Dec - 02 Jan whereas in France it would have required taking a full 7 days off.

The US system of vacation days seems to be very similar to the UK - only counting from M-F and the bank/national holidays that occur on weekends are "observed" on either a Monday or a Friday.
