    So many that I don’t actually know off hand, so I’ll take schmiken’s word for it.

    ” 60 days, but I’m a teacher and still do some work in those. ”

    28 days leave, no bank hols. However, I work 7 on, 7 off, and sometimes get sent home in bad weather, so I only really work 4 months a year 😀

    It’s the least days work for a full time salary of anyone I know of…

    27 days + bank hols.
    Goes up to 28 next year as i’ll have been here 10 years.
    Tops out at 30 after 15 years.

    25 plus bank holidays, I never use them all anyway.

    Recently turned down an offer for a role that would have had 39 plus bank holidays and a final salary pension. That was tempting.

    last full time job was (I think) 25+ B Hols + 8 from a contract fudge + up to 6 Flexi a year.. I think

    these days however much I don’t want to get paid/no work coming in.Flip side is it’s 9pm and I’m fixing DB errors for a deliverable next week and I’ve worked 80% of the public hols in the last 3 years and flown more sundays and friday nights than I want to

    25 days here plus Bank Holidays; I have to keep 4 or 5 back for the Xmas break as well.
    I reckon I’d forego a salary rise for an extra few days holiday if I could.

    30 (some of which have to be taken over Christmas shut-down) + bank holidays

    +1. We generally have to take 3 days over Christmas, which sees us through to the new yr. We also generally get chucked out of work around 10:30am on Chrismtas eve.

    We can choose how many hours we do a week for differing holiday – but given that most people do over the threshold for getting the 30 days anyway, it seemed like a no-brainer to sign up to that option.

    Something like 235 hours.

    325 but can gain more for working bank holidays and Christmas.

    No, wait that’s not right.

    Must be awful having to take Christmas off.

    25 days I think but since beginning of 2010 I think I’ve managed to take about a third or so of my leave per year.

    I get 25 + Bank Holidays, though we do have compulsory shutdown over Christmas which comes out of the 25 days.

    Management seem to always want to make the compulsory time longer than I want so I have to argue to take less every year.

    We get started on 20 & acrue a day for every year worked up to a maximum of 5 extra.

    Honestly I have no idea. I never seem to have enough spare time to use them up though as our HR bod points out year on year. I suspect I’m even going to lose some of my planned holiday at the end of August having to deal with a funding application……… 🙁

    Ah, the joys of running a university research group and lecturing as an untenured lecturer, particularly after the brexitards made life that much more unpleasant for everyone in higher education and research.

    I remember a mate who used to describe the holiday form process, fill in form, present to boss, boss signs it then shred form….

    I get 35- only 25 contracted, the rest for “buildings closed”. Think I get some more next year though.

    It’s quite funny, because it’s not a contractual right, they don’t promote the extra 10 days to new staff, you generally find out like this:
    “See you tomorrow”
    “No you won’t, we’re shut”
    “Oh. OH!”

    In the old company days it was 32 and would have to work bank holidays or could book them as holiday.

    Since our take over it’s 26 days plus bank holidays off and that goes up with time served to a maximum of 30 plus bank holidays I think. Our company do 24x7x360 support so we can also opt to work the bank holidays if we want and use the days elsewhere in the year apart from the 5 stat days where our offices are closed.

    31 (23 days basic + 3 days banding uplift + 5 days service maxed out after 10 years) plus bank holidays. Not a bad place to work, still feel like I’m hard done by at this time of year when MrsMomo is at home sleeping on the sofa!

    well, if we are counting total days worked, i’ve just worked it at 183.5 days a year not at work. which is just over 50%. I can live with that.

    Ah! In that case I work about 138 days a year. 😀

    I’d get 31.5 days paid leave if I was full time.

    I actually go to work 24 hours a week over 4 days, plus 10 weeks off unpaid for the main school holidays, so it gets pro rata’d to however many hours and covers me having the half term weeks off as well.

    And my remaining salary barely puts me above the lower tax threshold!

    US holiday entitlement are dire

    I get a massive 10 days + holidays although I started off with only 5 days plus holidays so it’s an improvement. I miss the 20 days+ BHs of being in the UK but I do work from home a lot so I do have plenty of time at home.

    Started out with 20, was at 30 for many years now 25 and I do miss the 5 extra days. 30 allows you to have a three week holiday if you want and not be restricted.
