Family home journey. After an uninterrupted stay of 6 (six) months in Europe or 9 (nine) months in non-European states the employee shall be entitled to a paid family journey home followed by a paid holiday, provided that the termination of his/her posting or a home journey for other reasons cannot be expected within the next 3 (three) months. The time used for the journey home shall not be credited to the paid holidays.

If, however, a journey home is not possible due, e.g., to the order book situation, the employee shall be entitled, after an uninterrupted stay of more than 6 (six) months in a European state, to 1/6th (one sixth) of the entire travel costs for the journey home to and back from the permanent place of residence for every month in excess of such 6 (six) months, or 1/9th (one ninth) for every month in excess of nine months in the case of a non-European state, in compensation for the home journey that was not taken.
