Paid leave: entitlement
Paid leave must, in principle, be taken every year. More than a right, the employee has the obligation to rest from his work.
Employees are entitled to a leave of 2,5 working days per working month, i.e. 30 working days (5 weeks) for a full working year.
The reference period for the acquisition of leave is set by company agreement, or failing that by collective agreement.
In the absence of any contractual stipulation, the vesting period is scheduled from June 1 of the previous year to May 31 of the current year. This period is different when the company is affiliated with a paid vacation fund, such as the construction industry for example. In this case, it is set for April 1.
