This variable measures the normal length of annual paid leave guaranteed by (statutory) law or collective agreement. The same score is given for laws and for collective agreements which are de facto binding on most of the workforce (as in the case of systems which have extension legislation for collective agreements). Paid vacation is essential for employees to protect their health and participate in social and cultural life. Public holidays and entitlements based on seniority (length of service with the company) are not included.

The values of the variables are based on values stored in extensive Excel tables. In addition to the values, the legal excerpts and sources of these excerpts are also documented there. The values in the Excel tables differ (depending on the version) from the values in the WESIS database. This applies in particular to the values of variables that are based on the original CBR-LRI data. The reason for this difference is a different range of data material used for coding (see break in series) and different legal interpretations by the coders.

This variable measures the normal length of annual paid leave guaranteed by (statutory) law or collective agreement. The same score is given for laws and for collective agreements which are de facto binding on most of the workforce (as in the case of systems which have extension legislation for collective agreements). Paid vacation is essential for employees to protect their health and participate in social and cultural life. Public holidays and entitlements based on seniority (length of service with the company) are not included.


Coding rules

The score is normalised on a 0-1 scale, with a leave entitlement of 30 days equivalent to a score of 1 (see Adams et al. 2023).

    There is a break in series due to coverage of legal text:
    1. 1880-1969 [1880-1979/89 [1]] + countries [2]: Values based on statutory law only.
    2. 1970-2022 [1980-2022 [3]]: Values - based on law or collective agreement - which have been extracted from the CBR-LRI leximetric dataset (see Deakin et al 2023).

    The comparability of the values over time is therefore limited.

      [1] Applies to the following countries: Namibia, Zimbabwe.
      [2] Applies to all countries not covered by CBR-LRI leximetric dataset (see Deakin et al 2023): Albania, Benin, Bosnia/Herzegovina, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Central African Republic, Chad, Congo, El Salvador, Eritrea, Gambia, Guatemala, Guinea, Hong Kong, Haiti, Iraq, Jamaica, Kuwait, Laos, Lebanon, Liberia, Libya, Madagascar, Malawi, Mauritania, Mozambique, Nepal, Niger, North Korea, Papua New Guinea, Sierra Leone, Somalia, South Sudan, Tajikistan, Togo, Trinidad and Tobago, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan for all times points available.
      [3] Applies to the following countries: (1991-2022) Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Croatia, Estonia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Macedonia, Moldova, Serbia, Slovenia, Ukraine; (1990-2022) Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Namibia, Poland, Romania, Vietnam; (1992/3/5-2022) Cambodia, Russia, Slovakia, Yemen; (1980/6-2022) China, United Arab Emirates, Zimbabwe; (2006-2022) Montenegro. St. Lucia and Malta are not included in the data.
