Thank you so much.

However, if someone were to want to know if they can work, where would they locate this ?

work-2 days or 1 day
Outside of Israel an extra day is added to holidays because in the old days it took a while for the message that the new moon had been observed to propagate to the Diaspora, so to make sure the right day was celebrated in the Diaspora, two days are celebrated in case we started the holiday too early. This was never done in Israel, so that's why they only take the Monday off.
