]]> Have you ever seen the calendar for the year 1752?

This year is so special in the history as this is the year when British Empire shifted to Gregorian Calendar from Roman Julian Calendar.

1752 Calendar

You can observe from the above image that the Wednesday, 2 September was followed by Thursday, 14 September in this year 1752; 11 days missing.

All the employees are given full salary for the month having just 19 days.

Thus we have got the first “Paid Leave”.
