how much holiday is normal?

[jaker]

Hi All,

just trying to guage a view on how much holiday to give staff. We currently give 20 days + christmas (about 3 days) + bank holidays.

This is for an office type job.

What do you get/give?

cheers

I keep getting asked for more. I am told that people who work in the public sector get 28 days + bank hols (to go with their lovely pensions and lack of work to do, plus their 'sick day' allowance ) it is hard for the private sector to compete...

BTW: My firm does software for managing this sort of thing. If you could do with software to manage Staff Holidays/Absences/Sickness/Time at Work/Attendance etc we can sort you out. It isn't cheap but it is good if I say so myself!

We only employ 4 people (including me!!) so I dont think I need software for that sorta ting... cheers anyway
