Ah, thanks for the clarification. thank god most employers go above the bare legal minimum, I never had anything less than 28 days. Once I even had the luck of being under a "naked" payment contract: 35 hour work week, unlimited overtime to be taken of whenever it was possible, 30 days of vacation and 12 weeks of continued pay in case of sickness (6 more weeks than mandatory). Ah, I miss these days...
