How much vacation time do you get from work?

[Don Quixote]

My company gave two weeks. Each additional year working for the company gave you an additional vacation day you could use as a personal day.

 

[Kraysla]

What is a 'stat day?' I'm not familiar with the term. 3 months sounds great. Take advantage and travel the world.

 

[VivaRevolution]

Damn. I get 8 weeks counting Christmas break.

That is allot in the US.

 

[Adamant]

20 days. Use or lose.

Use all at once or scatter throughout the year?

 

[TankAbbott4Eva]

20 days. Use or lose.

Really? That's a bit fucked, mine accumulate. I actually don't know what sick leave I get, I know that doesn't accumulate but it's always good to have a buffer of paid leave though I think.

 

[TheTimeIsNotNow]

4 weeks is the minimum by law here in new zealand plus all stat days. How come yanks get so few paid holidays? It's no wonder America is so unhappy and unhealthy.

Self hating corporate shills hate workers rights

 

[sh1tehawke]

25 plus 8 bank holidays.

It's fucked how few holidays the US sherbros get.

 

[Aldo145]

2 days of annual leave and 1 sick day a month. Plus i get almost every holiday

 

[Reefer1]

37 payed days, including vac sick liue floats.

 

[badascan]

2 paid and 3 unpaid weeks then between Jan 15th and match 15th +/- a few days...

*edit: I also work seven days a week and don't go home at night, or ever...

 

[VulcanNervPinch]

America sucks at time off.

We rank at the bottom with countries like Pileofdirtiztan

I'm probably on the high end with 25 + 8 holidays

 

[Alphaboy]

A lot. I'm on paternity leave though so I may not get to use them and they don't roll over.

[OldTimer]

25 days, plus on holiday day I can use whenever.

 

[PG29 red0 Jr]

Wow, it sounds like I get the shaft with 3 weeks paid time off.

 

[Headkicktoleg]

Whenever I want since I just do Uber now.

But the wildest I've heard is my stepdad. He worked for the city and all of his vacation rolls over. He never took a vacation day in ten years. So, while he's found a new job, he also has ~30 weeks of vacation he's taking as part of his severance package.

That's a lot of dough. Makes me want to be an adult.

That's pretty standard for government jobs. A lot of people retire a year or two early due to saved up vacation and sick time.

 

[Headkicktoleg]

My company just got rid of PTO. Anyone who didn't use it just lost it. Now its "use as much as you want!" Yeah right.

 

[ThulsaDooom]

Not nearly enough.

 

[method115]

28 days. I used to get paid for whatever was left at the end of the year but they didn't do it last year not sure they will this year. Either way I used most my days on honeymoon and birth of my son. So I have about 5 days left. Trying to save them for the end of the year.

 

[ithinktheymad]

Self-employed so technically none.

 

[Mr. 4K]

4 weeks and holidays.
