i get 22 days off and thats only because my employer gives me 20 PTO days + 12 holidays, that could easily go back to 10 PTO days and fewer holidays at another employer. America is a shithole.
China’s minimum required PTO is actually really shit lol

So many people I know are on day 3 of a 7 day work week (sat-fri) right now because of the october week
but yeah even factory workers get a couple of weeks for CNY, a few days for May day, couple of days for dragon boat and a few days for national day. school staff and service workers might have the worst holiday schedules I think.
may day, dragon boat and national day come with make up days though, so often it’s only 1-2 actual extra holidays for each
Its the sacrifice that some countries make to make the GDP skyrocket. Of the top countries, youd have to get to germany to be on the first country that offers reasonable PTO, as the 3 countries in front of it arent that great at it (U.S, China and Japan)
North Korea’s is like… significantly better than this lol. 15 days paid leave for workers, 2 months leave for students.
China isn’t even good for pto lol
even the uk legal minimum is 28 days
Yeah, Australia is 20 days PTO plus 10 “Sick Days” that don’t roll over like PTO. I make sure to use every one.
China offers so much time off, but at what cost? Their production suffers. They can’t sustain this. It isn’t efficient. Their workers aren’t motivated. No innovation. Venezuela.
lol it’s not even that much time off. Compared to France it’s honestly not that good. But compare retirement ages with France and China is much better. So of course neoliberal ghouls love to concern troll over China’s early retirement.
In Vietnam almost all workers are entitled to at least one week for Tết. But a lot are also given the entire month off to prepare. There was some news about the government demanding local unions to create workplace policies to allow migrant workers time off the holiday as well.
In the US you don’t even get mandatory time off for the country’s birthday. How pathetic.
To be fair, the US’ birthday celebrates slavery
BUT AT WHAT COST
PTO is one of the things that shocked me and made me realize how utterly shit workers’ rights are in the US. Even on my very first minimum wage job I got as a college dropout, I was entitled to 20 PTO days + a whole bunch of public holidays.
My wife accrues 3.5 minutes of PTO per hour worked. Her typical workweek is 32 hours so she accrues about 1.9 hours every week of PTO meaning she gets about 1 day off per month. Her office is closed 3-4 weeks out of the year because the owner goes on vacation so no one can work. They get no paid holidays or any benefits whatsoever
I got 52 days paid leave annually while working in Norilsk.
Serious question: How is a national holiday week coordinated? I’m figuring it’s safe to assume that hospitals and emergency services and the like will still have staff on hand. If part of the reason is allowing everyone to travel I’m guessing public transport will still be staffed. Do these people just get a different week off or something?
My first guess is that they’d get something like what I do: a choice between paid overtime or getting 2:1 days off for every day worked during the holiday. (The company I work for in the US gives some holidays off paid but some people still have to work).

Because uprooting your entire life and moving away from your friends and family to another country is famously an affordable, easy thing to do.
I have 20 days pto but I care about people other than myself
I know this must be incomprehensible to you though
Big 12 year old poaster energy
I can tell by the anime pfp you are a child.
Give me the money and I will pack up and be out of the country tomorrow. Dead serious.
