Christmas shutdown?? No, there is no such thing here! Mind you, even in the UK, I had to use my annual leave during the so-called Xmas shutdown! There are public holidays. We get 3 days for Eid at the end of Ramadan; there are also a few days in December as well as New Year's Day. Xmas is not generally a holiday here; some Western firms might give you the day off but you might actualy have to book it off as annual leave! Construction is 24/7 here and we would be so lucky to get a shut down period - not likely to happen anytime soon!
