    Much of the US doesn’t even have mandatory paid sick leave, let alone vacation.

    EDIT: Americans do effectively get 12 weeks of unpaid leave, but only if they or a family member gets a “serious” illness. That only applies to businesses with more than 50 employees though (along with a few other caveats).
