Not as good as down here.
 
You can come in late every Monday and finish at 1pm every Friday.
 
And the bit in between you don't actually fcuking do anything.



Not quite true, you have core hours you have to be in, mine are 10-12.30 and 2.30-4,they're different in others councils, around that you can work whatever hours you want as long as you work your 37 hours in a week.

30 days annual leave and 13 flexi days though😎

What are the flexi days?

I've a friend who works for the government and he has the work hours you mention above but they also have this "sick policy".
They are allowed 2 sick days a month so if they dont actually need them they just take 2 extra days holidays .... all off the record!
 
Flexi Days are days off work in lieu of time previously worked. In the Irish CS, its possible to have 19.5 days off if you work the hours in advance. You are allowed to take 1.5 days off in any four week period provided you have worked the additional hours in the previous four week period. Over the year you are working the same number of hours.

Work in engineering/manufacturing

Get 20 days plus public holidays
Service days are then awarded, so for every 5 years you get an extra day up to max of 3 days, this only came in last year after pressure from the union

You also get days in lieu if you have to travel at weekends

You get an extra day after 5 years, 2 after 7, 3 after 10, 4 after 12 and 5 after 15years, that's when it's capped.
 
When I lived in Vancouver, my first job you got 10 days holidays and they took 2 off you for them closing the office on Christmas eve and NYE, so you had 8 for the year, couldn't even take 2 weeks off, no paid sick leave.

American holidays seem to be along the same lines.

If you work up an extra 7.5 hours in a month you can take a day off, it's effectively instead of paying overtime

Work in manufacturing.20 days plus bank hold. No sick leave and have been here 11 years, pay has actually decreased by 10% as we don’t make money apparently. Private sector, that’s the life!

When I started the Civil Service we had 25 annual days leave after 5 years service that went up to 30.


Ah I'm in the British Civil Service. 30 days holiday & Flexi working. Can carry over days should you not use up your allowance but there's no mechanism to increase your annual leave allowance.

I think that would count as a sick day.

It is based on pay grade mainly here. The higher your grade the more annual leave you get

Sales for a PLC
We started on 25 days (newbies only get 22).
After 20 years you get an extra 5 days.

Work in the FMCG sector. I'm sure this is company specific, we get an extra days for every 5 years service. They calculate this on a full calendar year so if you started midway through January, you'd essentially have to work an extra year to get your extra day off.  

Leave is 20 days standard. I'm in here 12 years so I'm on 22 days. 

We can also take a days hols if we work 8 hours overtime in the previous quarter so that bumps me up to 26 days
