To define "days off" I would include vacation days, sick days, compensation for overtime. I would exclude national holidays.

25 vacation days. Sick days - I can call in sick two days in a row without a doctor's certificate. There's no limit on how often you can do it, but I expect if you do it once a month or so they'd be investigating. I can take up to 4 days of overtime compensation.

I want to say 15.  It's something like this.

Not sure. I get 4 or 5 weeks vacation, a couple of personal days and about 7-10 sick days. I never use it all, never use all my vacation time, so I just always have plenty of time off available. So I don't worry about time off, and I'm grateful for all that I have allotted to me.

3 weeks paid vacation.
I accumulate time over 37.5/week to be use when I please
9 sick days


I can also take 37.5h off that I can make up for later.

I get 26 working days of paid vacation per year. We don't have "sick days" per se - if you are sick, you just call in sick and stay home - but then we are expected to be mature about it, so people don't abuse it.

I probably have about 40 or 50 working days of paid vacation accumulated right now because I rarely use the whole allotment.

I have 30 vacation days and can take days off to compensate for overtime, which can add another 10-20 days per year. My boss will usually only allow up to 3 weeks at any one time though.
Sick days don't really exist, same procedure as Syt described.

Mr.Penguin

5 weeks of paid vacation, with a unpaid optional 6th week. Add to this 4 to 5 week off as compensation for overtime, some of which I get for working on weekend days and early morning hours. I could get the 6th unpaid week and the overtime as extra payments, but I personally prefer the extra days off...

Sick days, do you have more than 10 days do you better start showing a doctors note...

I have 24 paid days.  Sick day policy is very liberal; if you stay sick, call in and stay home as long as you think is necessary, without any need for a doctor's note.  You will be charged paid days for the days you're out, however.

That's liberal?  :lol:

I think I have between 30 and 40, all things considered, but I'm not sure.
