[quote=Anonymous]Can anyone share simple contract leave language you have used or liked?

Something along the lines of "Paid Vacation: 10 days (2 weeks) per year.  One week of vacation is to be scheduled based on the families’ vacation schedule.  Vacation leave will accrue at the rate of one day per month, until the maximum of ten paid days is reached.  Vacation leave may not be taken in the first three months of employment.  Employee is asked to provide one month notice to request vacation time of more than a day."

I don't really want to bother w/ fractional days (.83 days accruing each month) as that seems overly fussy. And I wouldn't expect someone to have to wait until their last couple of months to have their full vacation time available either.  Nor do I want someone taking two weeks off when they haven't even established themselves in the position yet, or to ask for a week off with only a week or two notice.

So I'm looking for advice on ways to phrase this that are clear, fair, and easy for all sides.

Thanks![/quote]
