Sabbatical Leave Policy
the essence
The essence of the Sabbatical leave policy is to allow employees to take an extended break from work for personal or professional development, travel, or other reasons, with the assurance of job security upon return. It
provides an opportunity for rejuvenation, skill enhancement, and work-life balance, benefiting both the employee and the organisation by promoting the well-being and retention of top talent.
Extended time off for personal/professional development
Best Practices
# One
Adobe offers a sabbatical program called “Kickbox,” which provides employees with a $1,000 prepaid credit card and a week off to pursue their own passion project. Employees can then apply for a full sabbatical of up to six months to continue working on their project.
# Two
Titan Company Limited, an Indian luxury goods company, offers a sabbatical program called “Career Break,” which allows employees to take up to two years off to pursue personal or professional development opportunities. During their sabbatical, employees receive a stipend and continued access to health benefits.

Three steps to success
We Help You Every Step Of The Way
Let’s face it! HR Policies need to be designed keeping the industry sector, business requirement and the needs of the workforce in mind. A one size fits all approach does not work when it comes to writing a number of policies.
On the other hand, labour laws require that companies adhere to various statutory compliances, but are difficult for the lay person to comprehend. Why stress over them. Leave the heavy lifting to us!
