I think it's important particularly for traders, to take a reasonable amount of time off in a row, say a week, just so that someone else can check the books over and sit in the drivers seat for a while, this should add some transparency and hopefully prevent any cover ups that have been missed by risk management or other staff. A future FSA regulation? I remember hearing that UBS demanded that certain front office staff take 2 weeks off.

yup, UBS demand everyone (back + front office) take a 2 week block off ( & not during december). I thought this was an FSA reg. (?)
