If you want to increase burnout (and its inevitable resultant churn) in an organisation, capping vacation length sounds like a surefire way to achieve that.
I think its better to take 1 week off 4x per year instead of 4 weeks off once per year. Working 11 months without a single vacation would cause me to burn out.

Sounds illegal in the UK. Workers are legally entitled to have 5.6 weeks ( https://www.gov.uk/holiday-entitlement-rights ). ps. I have a tool to help workers get the longest possible vacation. Am I allowed to publish the link here?

Do enough people take off the day after Thanksgiving that it's considered a holiday? I don't get Black Friday off unless I specifically request it. Otherwise it's just a normal workday (though often the office is empty that day, so I guess it's a distinction without a difference).

That's pretty cool, bookmarked :) I also like the design of the site. Well done! Do enough people take off the day after Thanksgiving that it's considered a holiday?

The Czech Republic and basically anywhere else in the EU.

I can't readily find anything to confirm this for UK. Sources like Gov.uk and the TUC say employers can say when you take your leave. Eg https://www.gov.uk/holiday-entitlement-rights/booking-time-o... https://worksmart.org.uk/work-rights/hours-and-holidays/holi...

I meant continental EU, I'm not sure about the UK. While these websites says nothing about forbidding the employer from setting a limit, they also don't say that it's allowed.
