Why does it say 0 for the US? You have Thanksgiving, Christmas, 4th of July and more? Are they unpaid days off? | ||||||||

Depends on the company. The US maintains no requirements, federal holidays are a suggestion, not a mandate. A few states inside the US upgrade federal holidays to state holidays to required paid time off. Most don't. In the US paid holidays are a corporate "tradition" more than a regulated common good. Even US federal employee holidays vary between agencies and branches of government. | ||||||||

I think they're technically not federally mandated. Businesses can be open on Christmas at their discretion and require workers to come in. | ||||||||

It depends on the job and is not mandated to be paid, or even given off. | ||||||||

Holidays are on top of vacations so they shouldn't be counted . | ||||||||

The rest of the world seems to believe that if the government doesn't mandate it, it doesn't happen. | ||||||||

Because it gets more attention if they ignore reality and treat a lack of a federal mandate as meaningful information. | ||||||||
