Mekong Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 Under Section 30 of the Labor Protection Act (LPA), an employee who has worked continuously for one full year shall be entitled to annual leave of not less than six working days. The term "annual leave" refers only to personal vacation. Public Holidays are 18 for Public Sector and 13 for private sector. The United States is the only so called “First World Nation” which does not have mandatory PTO, either Public or Personal, the only other counties being Kiribati, Marshall Islands, Micronesia, Nauru and Palau. It stands out like a sore thumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Penis is hungry Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 Micronesia I can speak with some authority, I've worked directly with the government departments for setting up business there, Just passed 90 days paid maternity which is amazing, But they have very few paid leave other than that - but no one cares too much when you take time off Tax is very low, 10% at most, I have planned to live there for a very long time, Loved working there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalo_bill Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 Very encouraging poll, 4 votes including my own shall put the extreme Right under considerable pressure. I see myself as something like the Schwarzenegger, I am more muscly though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzzz Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 Trump backs McCarthy for House Speaker. But MAGA Republicans--his own people--do not. Trump is becoming irrelevant politically. He will likely be going to jail soon, along with many of his associates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffalo_bill Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 McCarthy probably would have sold his mother into a brothel to become Speaker. I believe the ral trouble for him is just about to appear soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zzzz Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 5 hours ago, Coss said: Trump CFO Weisselberg gets 5 months in jail. As part of his co-operation deal, what did he provide authorities, to get such a small sentence? He got a deal for agreeing to plead guilty to a number of felonies. But the Judge later said he made a mistake in agreeing to such a small sentence in the plea deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 Not sure of USA, but I believe sentence reduction can be up to 66.66% for plea bargain. In the UK the maximum reduction is 25% for an early plea dropping to 10% for a late plea, Australia is up to 25% and NZ is up to 33%. The credit given for a guilty plea in the USA seems out of synch with the rest of the civilised world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coss Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 Ahh but what percentage for providing information that would lead to the conviction of a Teflon Don? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
