Holiday here has a legal minimum but it's use it or lose it
That seems illegal too? In Australia annual leave builds up, which usually is only a problem for those people who literally never take leave and have some sort of unholy balance and are forced to use it up so the company doesn't have to pay it out in a huge lump sum.
not illegal at all (edit: in the US), unfortunately. in very few cases will PTO of any kind accumulate for more than a year. if you don't use up your PTO by the end of the (fiscal) year, the number of hours is just reset and you lose whatever you didn't use.
