allmän helgdag

Explanation:
I would guess that the language used is not entirely correct. Civil day, in the context of holidays, is probably referring to public holidays (allmän helgdag) or what in Sweden often is called "röda dagar" (red days), as they are marked red in a Swedish calendar. In the UK the equivalent would be bank holidays - no work.
