An average full time office worker in France would get 7 weeks, more at big companies that want to attract talents with better benefits. I had a job with 11 weeks. I used them all.
Yes, I’m in france and the classic is the 5 legal weeks plus 12-24 RTT (as the work week is 35h by law, the deal is thet you do 37.5 or 39 and get those extra days in compensation) days which are basically days you take when you want/need/can.
This is the best. People need to hear this more. 6 weeks is feasible and done today in some countries. Even then, we can afford to do more.
When people phrase it like this I think they help others understand it isn’t a wish it’s a reality in parts of the world and therefore it can be a reality in theirs. It also tells people that 6 isn’t the target, more is the target. We shouldn’t be striving for infinite stock prices we should be striving for infinite time off. Automation, freedom, self-sufficiency.
32 hour work week, 8 weeks of vacation, more money, more healthcare, more public transit. We can afford it all. Tax the rich, break up monopolies, unionize, and build bridges and ladders - make a better community!
Crazy 5 weeks is like the pinnacle of existence…

This is not affected at all by being sick ofc.
As someone who has 6 weeks, even then it’s not enough. We all deserve more.
