在调查涵盖的12个国家里，爱尔兰和荷兰情况相似，都是29天，而丹麦、德国部分地区、葡萄牙和瑞典的上班族工作最少，节假日有38或39天。

A plethora of annual Bank Holidays also exist across Europe. Portugal, Sweden, Spain and some parts of Germany top the list with 14 days each, including holidays such as 'Freedom Day' (Dia da Liberdade) on April 25 in Portugal and 'Midsummer's Day' on June 25 in Sweden.

The Danes receive a generous 27 statutory days, despite having the lowest number of Bank Holidays on the calendar. Their holiday allowance puts them ahead of Finland, France, Norway, Portugal and Sweden, who all get 25 days.
丹麦人尽管日历上标出的法定公休假最少，但他们却享有多达27天的年假，超过了有25天年假的芬兰、法国、挪威、葡萄牙和瑞典。
