摘要:According to the Labor Standard Law, Article 39, Paragraphs 1 and 2, the rights to annual leave of 10 days occurs when a worker has completed six months of "continuous service" from the first day of employment, on the condition that the worker has reported to work on 80 percent or more of all working days during that period. Subsequent to this six-month period, two more days of leave are added each year, in principle, provided the same condition is met, until, after six years, the leave reaches the maximum of 20 days. Therefore, with the exception of part-time workers who have fewer working days, workers in general have 10 to 20 days of annual leave. Employers may grant this annual leave of 10 to 20 days as "continuous or scattered" leave. In other words, employers are not necessarily obligated to grant annual leave as continuous leave
