I get 30 days but took 15 yrs service to get there. Bank holidays not included since I work them - except Christmas Day (but inc. Boxing day, New Years day...)
 
I get 25 days ie Mon-Fri, which means 5 weeks annual leave, plus 10 1/2 days Public and privilege leave days. 8 of them statutory public/bank holidays the other 2 1/2 privilege days to be taken either on certain dates or elsewhere. After 10 years service it goes upto 30 days annual leave. Given I usually do a few hours extra a week I usually get 12 flexi days too per year.
 
My part timers still get 20 days (plus bank hols) - but it's defined in the contract with (x hours) after it, because their days are 4.5 hours rather than 7.5

When i worked part-time on a permanent contract I got 14 days leave, which i thought was really generous as I only worked ten hours a week
 
I've actually gone up to 25 days + bank holidays but our AL is actually in hours...........which is a right royal pain in the arse !
 
Wondering how much annual leave people get?

I just got a new job where the standard is 36 days inc bank hols, I think thats blooody loads! Some people at my work get more than 40 days... when do they actually have time to do there work ffs!
That does seem a lot! How many bank holidays are there in a year btw?

Most I've ever got was 30 days plus bank holidays, and one year the 3 days between Xmas and new year. :) Mostly it's been 25 plus bank holidays, with the NHS.
 
35 days but i dont get bank holidays off . used to be 27 days plus hours in lieu of bank holidays but that got too confusing so they changed it. however, a day is counted as 7 hours and most of our shifts are at least 9 hours long, so if you take a days holiday, you have to work an extra 2 hours somewhere else in the week. we also get time off as "compensatory" hours when there isnt enough work in exchange for working more when its busy, but we dont decide when we take them/do the extra, which is a bit pants :(
 
28 + BH

.... My other half was in a job before that was 15 inc BH, pretty sure that isn't legal?? :hmm:
 
I get 30 days + bank holidays (of which there are about 10 a year), and possibly the period from Christmas to New Year. Academia is great.
Oh yeah I get 2 days a year to move house as well (but only once), and 5 days if I get married.
 
35 days, plus an extra 5 (ferie fredag - means you take off at your own expense), if you don't take the extra 5 you get these paid back.
Plus one moving day a year (paid).

And then there's always sickies. ;)
 
None at all.

On the other hand, I can take as much *unpaid* leave as I like. Swings and roundabouts*.

* That's were I spend my unpaid leave.
 
25 days plus bank holidays - and I take 'em all! We also can't carry them over to next year unless it is under 'special circumstances'
 
35 days plus 3 days at christmas plus bank holidays. Plus i'm in charge of the absence returns for the dept so can often wangle a few more days here and there.
Holidays are the absolute BEST thing about my job.
 
25 days full time, 15 in my case, as I work three days a week.

I only discovered recently that you're supposed to use holiday if you want to be off on the Xmas week on non bank holiday days (some places I've worked, the office is just closed for it). I'm sure I've just blatantly not come in on that week before, without counting it as holiday - heck, not like there's going to be enough people to notice and all our contacts will be taking a break.
 
Do you know what? I can't actually remember!!

Not quite as silly as it sounds. I work in a school so get school holidays but only a certain amount of it is paid.

I think its about 2 weeks...... :hmm:
