trade union agreements containing
provisions for holidays with pay. 1t
was then estimated that the number
of wage-earners covered by such
agreements was about l " millions.
Since then considerable number
of new agreements have been made.
1t is estimated that today about 81
100000 wage earners have secured
holidays with pay through the efforts
of the unions. This huge total does
not include the large number of sal
aried workers and others who have
paid holidays by custom and long
practice, nor the wage-earners en-
ployed by firms which are not parties
to collective agreements but which
grant paid holidays to employees under
individual arrangements.
Details are given in the current Min
istfy of Labor Gazette of both general
agreements and district agreements
in variety of trades and occupations.
The agreements specify the number Of
paid holidays, varying from three days
to twelve, in each year, and the period
Of service, varying from six months
to three years, which qualities the
