Explain these statistics (particularly Europeans)

Felsir:
By that rationale; in the Netherlands only 1 day off per 365,000 doesn't sound realistic.
In my opinion that chart is plain wrong.

I think you have it there ... it must be some sort of measure of "lost" work time and excludes scheduled time off.

This isn't uncommon in the high tech sector.  

I think most high tech companies give 3 weeks for junior people these days.

I started out with 2 weeks + 10 statutory holidays + 2 floating holidays...

Vacation increase with years in service...  25 years gets you 5 weeks, 30 years gets you 6 weeks.

I'm not surprised the french are a bunch of lazy  :censored:

shmokes:
Agreed.  Anybody who thinks it would be nice to have five seven weeks of holiday (plus national holidays) has mental problems.  They must have really low worker productivity rates, and I bet they're a really poor country.
