The curve adds estimated vacation hours only on the selected working days. Non-working days and uncovered periods remain flat.

Each square is one calendar day. Coloured squares are selected working days on which vacation entitlement accrues; non-working days remain empty.

How the estimate works

For every period, annual vacation weeks are multiplied by working days per week. The calculator splits periods at calendar-year boundaries, distributes each year's entitlement across the selected working days in that year and accrues it only on those days within the period. Each daily accrual is rounded to a whole second before the period and yearly totals are added up.

Important note

This calculator provides a transparent estimate, not legal advice or a payroll statement. Contracts, collective agreements, rounding rules and absences can change the final entitlement.
