        Oh right, yes. In Poland the employer pays 80% for your sick time up to a month and then the social security takes over.

      At a new job (in the US) I get:

      • 19 a year, no sick time.
      • At 5 years I’ll have 24 a year
      • At 10 years I’ll have 27 a year

        5 - 10 years at the employer or overall? In Poland it’s 20 days that turns into 26 after seniority. University counts as 7 years regardless of the length of your studies, I went for three and started working during my second year. I got 26 days almost immediately. Of course I keep the 26 days after I change jobs.

          At the employer, there’s absolutely nothing that guarantees PTO on a legal basis. Most part-time employees don’t even get PTO, at best they can ask for unpaid time off.

            There’s also federally mandated FML and disability, but neither are required to be paid.

          How could education count towards seniority - is this only for jobs that don’t require education?

            No, this is for all jobs. It matters for the time off you get over a year, not seniority at a company per se. You get more time off if you work for a certain amount of time anywhere. And uni counts as 7 yrs even if you go through 3 or 5.
