However, there are many labor issues in Greece, for instance, you may work for many hours and end up being paid nothing. To counter this, it is best to ask the employer to pay you on a weekly or daily basis. This way, you won’t end up losing a whole month’s pay.

7. Austria: 38 days full paid off time
AustriaWorkers here get 25 vacation and 13 public holiday time off days making a total of 38 total paid time off days.

In addition to the normal vacation pay, workers here get a 13th month salary and a 14th month Christmas salary, each pay amounting to a full months salary.

8. France: 40 days off time fully paid
FranceHere, workers enjoy a 40 days fully paid time off duty. This is a dream come true to any foreign worker who finds employment in France. Yes, imagine having two months of full paid vacation time every year! Apart from the many days of fully paid vacation time, the French have excellent recourse option if they think they have been fired unjustly. For example, if you have worked for more two years in a company that has more than 11 workers, if you are unfairly dismissed by your employer, then a judge may either force the company to re-employ you with full benefits or ordered to pay at least six months salary in compensation.

9. Russia: 40 full paid time off days

The employers are trying very hard to catch up with their western world counterparts and therefore become more reliable in the way they do things.

10. Brazil: 41 days full paid time off
