How about this?

 

First Working Day of Month = 
VAR TodaysDate = TODAY()
VAR Calendar1 = CALENDAR(DATE(YEAR(TodaysDate),1,1),DATE(YEAR(TodaysDate),12,31))
VAR Calendar2 = ADDCOLUMNS(Calendar1,"Month",MONTH([Date]))
VAR Calendar3 = ADDCOLUMNS(Calendar2,"WeekDay1",WEEKDAY([Date],2))
VAR TodaysMonth = MONTH(TodaysDate)
VAR Calendar4 = FILTER(Calendar3,[Month]=TodaysMonth&&[WeekDay1]<6)
VAR FirstWorkingDay = MINX(Calendar4,[Date])
RETURN FORMAT(FirstWorkingDay,"mm/dd/yyyy")
