Canadian here. I signed a contract with 4weeks of vacation that was changed to ‘unlimited’ this year. So far I’ve taken 5 weeks and have a 6th week approved in November.
I haven’t used any sick days but they’re unlimited. If you take more than 3 in a row, you need a doctors note.
15 weeks parental leave that can be split between partners (father can use none/some/all to look after child while mother goes back to work)
My state now has mandatory parental leave, about a year after me and my wife had decided that we didn’t want more kids. Oh well. At least people in the future will benefit.
Even if I were it wouldn’t apply in this case. Having a society with programs like this in place helps everyone even indirectly. I am fine with greed as long as it goes beyond basic right in front of you.
We all benefit from a better world. Sure some more than others but all at least some.
Sweden here we only get 5 weeks vacay. 480 days parental leave though.
People in America and Japan… “‘only’ 5 weeks?!”
So a Mormon couple could get a paycheck without ever working for 30 years?
Don’t forget we don’t have a limited amount of days were allowed to be sick either.
So, 5 weeks more than we get! That sounds amazing!

At least youre not the type to try to stop something because you missed the window on benefitting from it
