Well, a legal minimum of 20 vacation days (and 30 being the norm for full-time work), plus 9-10 public holidays that fall on workdays, plus as many days of paid sick leave as the doctor asks for.
So maybe 220 days at work per year? I guess that is 6-10% less than in the US.
- germanier 9y agoAn average German employee works about 1.3k hours a year, in the US about 1.8k. There are some European countries where people work even longer on average. (Note that these numbers include all workers, so also part-time employees. There are also differences between countries on how they are exactly measured so comparisons should be taken with a grain of salt. But for a rough idea that should be enough).
