4 weeks plus stats here and it would seem the boss begrudges everyone of them! I casually reminded him i was off for half term week today which brought about much moaning, i hadnt told him etc etc, so much for asking for a bit more holiday next year ๐Ÿ™„

I get 26 days + service entitlement (3 days this year, 4 next and goes up to a max of 5 days at 10 years completed service) + bank holidays. So this year I have 38 days leave plus 3 days carried over from the last financial year.

The new job I'm starting gives me 25, with (if I read this right) the option to buy another TWENTY! Giving a staggering nine weeks.. tempting!

25 days + stats

That's the norm in office jobs isn't it? Mostly get more days in Europe, whilst the US gets less - maybe 10 days to start with.

Long service people in John Lewis get 6 months to say thanks.

Molgrips, are you buying those days at a reduced price, or is it unpaid leave? If it's the former that could be very nice!

25 days + stats but since we work a 4.5 day week, in effect I get more days off ( a week off only uses up 4.5 days holiday ).

34 days
7 occasional days
Bank holidays*
11 days every 2nd year to maintain ties to my home country.

Flexitime - we can work 16 hours in advance, and have a negative balance of up to 16 hours.

* only if they fall on a work day, unlike the UK where you get the subsequent Monday off if the BH falls on a weekend

Been here ten yrs now, it's the building industry norm. Going to have to have a chat about it though coz kids growing up fast and I wanna spend more time with them! To be fair tho it's only recently that this industry hasn't included your bank hols in your 4 weeks ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

20 + stats is pretty much the minimum they have to give you

Next year it's 35 days + bank hols (but only as a one-off, then back to 30).

26 + stats here, we used to go up to 30 + stats with long service but they bought those back from most people (increased salary) and no offer it. Mind you our US counterparts seem to get shafted on holiday so I don't feel too bad.

25 days plus 8 (or 9) bank holidays plus 6 flexi days per year (will always do enough hours to cover this) and I can buy or sell another 5 on top of this as long as my manager agrees.

0 or 365 depending if you view being a stay at home dad as work. It sure seems like 0 some of the time however, time with my daughter is precious so am happy with my current situation. ๐Ÿ˜€

Too much than I can find any use for.

Over the last 10 years I've accrued something like 33 days a year? However I'll be back into the real world in the new year when I have to find a new job.

I don't get any holiday entitlement.

There are 200 days a year when I have to be on site. These are non-negotiable.

I then have to do whatever it takes on the other 165 days of the year (plus the evenings of the 200 days) to get the job done.

28 total accrued at a rate of 4.5hrs/week.

Though that should go up in December.

Does anyone take [url= http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Parents/Moneyandworkentitlements/WorkAndFamilies/Parentalleaveandflexibleworking/DG_10029416 ]Parental Leave[/url]?

If you have children under five then each parent can take a total of up to 13 weeks' (unpaid) parental leave for each of your children up to their fifth birthday.
