LG employees can usually expect around 22 days annual leave pa for service of less than 5 years, and 8 days bank holidays in addition to this. Some LGs (and civil service) employees also have extra 'privilege' leave days such as the Queen's Birthday and Maundy Thursday afternoon, amongst others. Both public and civil service employees can usually expect increased annual leave increments if they have longer service plus a variety of other benefits including flexible working schemes, nursing leave, bereavement leave, sick pay on full salary for up to 6 months, day release for work related training, help with fees for non-work related training/education, loans for purchasing transport season tickets, etc.
Now that sounds like a benefits package and if the IFA were proposing such as a minimum for all RAOs, you wouldn't be hearing any complaints from me.
