That's quite generous although not if you never get to take them off - at my work currently I can carry over 9 days to the next holiday year, anywhere I've worked previously only gave me about that available to carry over or I just lost the days. That does remind me though I've still got to take an extra couple of days off before the next holiday year comes round.

We only get to carry over a maximum of 5 days to the next year or we lose them.

That's why I've got so much to carry over, I only managed to take 3 or 4 days off last year. I won't ever be doing that again.

Same here actually but they made an exception because last year was such a manic year that it was a case of me not being able to take holiday rather than me choosing not to.

I did suggest they'd give me a months salary in exchange for the carried over days but they didn't go for it.
