How many paid holiday's are there in Denmark or Switzerland? Or what is the total number of paid days off including vacation and holidays? I'd say the average number of holidays for white collar workers in the U.S. is about 10 days.
- d4adb33f 10y agoAbout the same according to a quick Google search. "It usually adds up to five weeks of vacation plus around nine public holidays (plus other possible company paid holidays or additional vacation time)."

- martin_bech 10y agoThats a good question. I just counted the days for 2017, its 8 and a half. May 1st is half a day off (not for everyone). So 5-6 weeks + 8 days. (Sidenote, most jobs you have to use 3 weeks vacation during summer)
- martin_bech 10y agoI almost forgot, if you work in the public sector, you also get 2 days of per child under 7 years, for each parent. You can also negotiate to take part of your maternity leave at a later date, some of our friends are now on a 3 month vacation in Australia, using the maternity leave and savings for funding. ( this needs to be negotiated with employer, but its not unusual)
