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.
johndoh - Member30 (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.
[s]Something like 235 hours.[/s]
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.
27 plus Bank holidays
25 paid
8 BH
15 purchased with tax relief
48 total which is nice
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.
13 or 14 weeks.
36 inc bank holidays (5 mondays through the year, 4 at christmas and new year.), and need to use 4 days to cover shutting down over christmas, 23 days I can take when I want.
30 plus bank holidays + 4 days over christmas also can take 2 flexi days a month
182.5 days a year!
Only 11.5 working days until this holiday ends. mind you its been 20 working days since he holidays started,
My contract's being messed about (verbally it's to be made permanent on the 16th aug). So i'm doing faff all work until the. Although i start a part time MSc in September as well as a Forest Schools course. So they better get my contract right.
20 days paid plus 8 bank holidays
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.
Self employed so it's up to me.
Three day week, 20 days.
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.
30 + BH (25 until 5 years service) blue chip
22 + BH. We're occasionally allowed unpaid leave but its such as admin headache we're advised not to do it. Harumph
33 + most bank holidays
Flexi time so I finish 1/2 days on Friday
I purchased an extra 5 days leave this year on top of the 33, can purchase up to 10 days.
and 35 hour working week
I don't work in the private sector.
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!
I only work 195 days a year so get 170 days at my leisure!!!
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 [s]go to[/s] 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!
Ok 195 days working 190 when kids are in.
32 plus 8 bank holidays, plus 5 carried over.
28days, plus federal holidays, I am now based in the US and negogiated the same terms from when I was in the UK. US holiday entitlement are dire so I don't mention too much to my US colleagues
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.
320 hours including Bank Holidays.
I get 28 days holiday which includes my bank holiday intitlement (I have to work bank holidays) however last year I only got to take 13 of these and this year I have taken 2 so far and have 5 more booked ... The joys of working for the family business!
32 days plus every fifth week off. Makes up for some bloody unsociable start times
I am another who works for a company operating the "don't take the piss" system. I don't know what I've taken, neither does my boss. I don't know what my direct reports have taken either. If you want it, take it, just make sure you've palmed your work off on someone else or promise to login every other day and delegate anything urgent. You don't need to book time off for builders, doctors appts etc, just crack on. It's a common sense system.
My boss is a facebook friend, and when I take the occasional spontaneous sunny day off to go climbing or walking or ride my bike or whatever she just presses like.

😯
24 or 25 plus bank holidays I think (somewhere in that ballpark, I only started the job on monday and haven't committed the details to memory yet! I know it's less than my old job which was 30+bh though)
365 days, but unfortunately it's not paid.
Six weeks, but not bank holidays / Christmas etc.
195 days when I have to go in to work, so 170 days when I don't have to. 104 of those are weekends and 9 are bank holidays, so about 55 days 'holiday'?
13 weeks as a teacher - discounting weekends that's 65 days.
Before you moan 😉 I do work during the holidays, marking, planning, etc. I was actually in school for the last 2 days sorting out my workshop. and I'll probably be in for at least another 4 days over the holidays to catch up on paperwork, and start ordering stuff for next year.
30 plus BH but half the days I do are home anyway so its not exactly the coalface.[list]
