How it's worked out

1

21 days a year to start

Article 109 gives every employee at least 21 days of paid annual leave a year.

2

30 days after 5 years

Once the employee has worked 5 years for the same employer, the entitlement goes up to 30 days a year.

3

It builds up every day

Leave is earned a little each day you work, so after 6 months an employee on 21 days has about 10.5 days.

4

Unused days have a cash value

Days not taken when the job ends are paid at the daily wage, which is the monthly wage divided by 30.

Questions people ask

At least 21 paid days a year, and 30 days once the employee has served five years with the same employer. A contract can give more, never less.
