How the Raw Value Is Calculated

The raw value shows the statutory minimum paid annual leave entitlement in working days. It refers to a normal full-time employee; public holidays are not counted here.

Nomadino uses public labour-law sources such as ILO NATLEX, national labour legislation and, for EU countries, the EU Working Time Directive minimum. Where no clean standalone value is available, maintained replacements use the administering state and comparable legal systems.

The rating increases with the raw value. 0 vacation days receives 0 points, 30 days or more receives 100 points; values in between are scaled linearly.

The indicator measures statutory minimum protection, not collective agreements, voluntary employer benefits, sick leave, parental leave, part-time rules or actual vacation uptake.

Public holidays remain a separate indicator so countries with few vacation days but many statutory holidays are not double-counted or misread.
