In Hungary I as CEO am legally bound to kick people out to use their vacation days.

  Same in Switzerland, you have to take a certain amount of vacation as well as a certain amount of breaks in the work day. Even if you want to skip lunch to leave early it is not technically allowed. [1] Also, if you get sick on vacation you get that time back as well.

Used to drive me nuts when I had an internship and was in the middle of something. (Yes, I have a working problem. Why do you ask?)

    My anecdote about Switzerland is that I was once prescribed 20% sick leave, meaning that I had to take a fifth of every day off to tend to my health. It made total sense given my medical circumstances, but the whole concept blew my mind (even our HR system didn't have a way to record it).
