If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Gosh, I'm quite shocked at the UK. They are not ally pretty good for workers rights.
The worker in Australia may have accrued long service leave. It's a seperate entitlement that means younger 3 months leave at once,.on top of holiday entitlement, after working somewhere for 10 years.
Older contracts and union deals can be quite good in the UK. I would bet if this company doesn’t have a union that newer employees would be limited in the number of days they can transfer to the next year, likely less than a week.
Yeah the company I worked for let you shift 5 but you had to take them within the first 3 months
No no, this was multiple old guys and in addition to long service leave, they just never took leave.
For the UK I think the policy is in support of worker rights, in a round about kind of way. If you let people pay it out then they might never take leave and won't get the benefits of actually having had a break from work.
