very good.
Except "now has a required minimum of 25 (paid) vacation days per year, no matter what country they live in." Well no. If they live in the UK for example they have a mandatory limit of 28 days not 25 because it's the law.
I think you are talking about 25 days they can choose. In the UK you have 8 days that are Bank Holidays and National holidays. So this is a 33 day holiday policy.
In the UK you cant normally be forced to take leave its up to the employer how they handle overages some have use it or lose it some allow a carry over.
Apart from the finance industry where for some staff I think its mandatory for anti fraud reasons to take at least a two week block.
No, you are not required to take them,but if you don't the company has to pay you the full amount for those days(so in effect, if you don't take ANY holidays during the year, you will get an additional 1-month's salary at the end).
Well the 28 day limit covers public holidays as well, maybe they mean in excess of public holidays and therefore cover pretty much every country everywhere?
