Like the title says, maybe this will help when someone is considering a new employment offer.
If you wish to contribute with certain details about how many days off your employer offers, what sector does the company activates in, size - number of employees etc.
I’ll start
I should technically be 9 hours a day in the office ( 1 hours is lunch break) , 5 days a week.
I have 35 days per year not counting bank holidays ( very pleasant surprise, having had 26 days back in Ireland)
Company sector is FMCG
Company size is about 150k employees worldwide
extra hours cannot be taken back unless the extra after 10h a day (so smart from employer: you’re free for him between 8 and 10 and those hours are legion… Because they do not advice you to work more than 10 hours a day)
25 PTO Days per year and all Geneva holidays (about 10/year)
Min of 40 hours per week, max of 50 hours. Any hours above 50 (only on Sundays) are given as comp-off hours to be availed within 1 month, otherwise they lapse with no compensation.
22 PTO Days per year and all Basel holidays (about 10/year)
25 days of paid holiday + 10 public holidays + 4 extra days
8h30 daily
Financial sector
It’s an interesting indicator, but it would also depend on the compensation.
Maybe more holiday implies a lower salary. Also, in some companies, you have the official weekly hours and what is done really by employees.
41h / week flexible, overtime can be taken whenever if your project has no problem with it. Even whole days or weeks, just like vacation. Not sure if you could get it as cash though.
25 vacation days / year
possibility to work from home at least 1 day / week
possibility to work during your commute if you’re able to
possibility to “save” vacation days in a flexible way over different years
possibility to change to any occupation % in the matter of minutes, as long as it doesn’t happen too regularly
If working less than 100%, it’s up to you and the project you’re in to determine when you work. “Legally” you can do whatever you want, e.g. 80%:
6h / day, 5 days / week, all month
8h / day, 4 days / week, all month
8h / day, 5 days / week, 3 weeks and 1 day (depending on the month)
Interesting. For me one should always take into account if overtime can be compensated with holiday or paid out. That is a huge advantage compared to contracts where overtime is expected but not compensated. Howewer some might said that it is compensated by huge bonus and very high salary.
In my case:
8.5 hours a day (overtime is compensated with more holidays, in my case 2-3 weeks of additional holiday)
27 days of paid holidays
10 days of paternity leave (very good until end of 2020, but corresponds to the minimum from 2021)
Without mentioning your salary the leave policy is meaningless. I would rather earn double my salary and have 0 days off, rather than have my current salary and 25 days off.
