Earned leave is available after a year of continuous service.
Casual leave is 10 days and sick leave 14 days per calendar year with full wages, and neither carries forward. Earned leave builds up at one day for every 18 days actually worked, once a worker has a year of continuous service, and stops building at 40 days; unused earned leave is paid out when the worker leaves. Festival holidays were 11 days a year and are reported as 13 after the 2026 amendment, so check the current gazette.
