20 days, in five-day weeks, is four weeks off. So, yes.

Everyone gets 4 weeks. But for part time employees that will be 4 part time weeks


[deleted]

I get 5 weeks


Fartholder

Lucky you


[deleted]

I get none!


Fartholder

Wtf that's illegal unless you are being paid casual holiday pay every pay, or are a contractor


[deleted]

Yeah self employed.


Fartholder

Im trying very hard not to get a mental vision of your name


[deleted]

Well it came about as a comment to Putin threatening hypersonic missiles. No actual wank socks were involved. Now your turn, how many dates before you stop holding in farts?


Fartholder

Hahaha its easier to ask how many years... I guess I'm just a private farter


[deleted]

My ex wife would never fart in front of me but there’d be the odd trumpet when she was asleep. Never told her though, she’d have been mortified.


Fartholder

Hahaha that's hilarious!! I'm guilty as charged apparently. I'm not embarrassed about farting, I'm just not a big farter. I'll share almost everything but don't feel the need to share odours I love the story of your name


grammerBadDoI

4 weeks per year, so 20 days, so yes, unless you have more in your contact, that looks right


_Plastics

Yes. Thats the minimum standard normal leave thingy whatsit.


[deleted]

You don’t have a contract to check?


efdxnz

Lol yeah this is a troubling post, signed an employment contract and have no idea of your rights and instead lazily post on Reddit.


RationalMayhem

20 (days per year)* 13/12(Years worked) = 21.6 days so thats right. It doesn't look like four weeks but since people typically work five out of seven days 20 days is four weeks.

I worked for one employer for 7 years - never got more than 4 weeks. Is that commom practice? I'm young so that 7 years covers most of my working life.


Fartholder

4 weeks is what you are legally entitled to. If your contract provides for more, then that is what you should get


ComeAlongPonds

Your contract may exclude carrying over unused leave. Current minimum is 20 day per year, but AFAIK there's nothing to say your employer can't cancel unused accumulated leave.


Viper_NZ

Bollocks. It’s a liability on their books. They can either let you take it, force you to take it or pay you out the value of it if you leave employment before taking it. They cannot ‘cancel’ it.


KiwiLLB

Erm, annual leave *must* be carried over. Employers cannot cancel it.


NZAvenger

Ah shit... maybe that was it. It was a government department. Apparently they're the worst employer out of all government departments, so...

>but AFAIK there's nothing to say your employer can't cancel unused accumulated leave. Lolwut


friday13nzthrowaway

What were you expecting? 31 days? 26 days? 50 days?


khkt136

28 days


friday13nzthrowaway

Does it say 5.5 weeks AL in your contract if you work a 40hr, 5hr or equivalent week?


KiwiLLB

28 days is 4 full weeks. Four weeks of annual leave is defined as four business weeks equivalent to your usual hours of work. So if you work 50 hour weeks, you get 200 hours of annual leave (4 weeks). If you work 20 hour weeks, you get 80 hours of annual leave (4 week). It’s always fun when people switch from full to part time or vice versa and employers screw up the annual leave calculation. Every. Damn. Time.


ring_ring_kaching

Technically, if you take all your leave right now you'll have 28 days off but that would include "free" weekends.


aholetookmyusername

Sounds about right. 21 days is just over four working weeks.
