Suppose the European Commission is considering an EU-wide policy mandating that workers be entitled to a one-month vacation every year. To promote a common market, is it necessary that all EU members have the same policies toward annual vacations? Or should this decision be left to the member states?
Ans: According to me the decision of one- month vacation should be left to member states because generalisation of same policies towards vacation every year can create a chaos among the member states because then they will mandatory have to give one month vacation whiach can affect the work performance of the employers; and if the memeber states are given autonomy to decide the vacation holidays as well as to decideon the basis of one's country, culture member states can better decide if they want to give vacation or not or they want to give vacation they can their individual vacation months because if the policy is mandatorily implemented then it can be the case that some member states can reluctantly push themselves out of EU; their morale is not boosted as they are not given the autonomy with respect to decision taking.
So let the memeber states themselves decide to adopt the policies depending upon their individual countries' culture., work, economical or political situation or taking into mind their individual scenario which policy is best suitable with respect to vacation.
