Vacation leave (incl 4+4)

Please see Holiday and vacation leave

Study leave

For every year, you are entitled to 5 days of study leave based on a 40-hour work week, which will be calculated pro rata if you work part-time. These will expire on 31 December. You can use the study leave if your selected training takes place during working hours. You can apply for leave by using the NMBRS (app). Use the group ‘study leave’

More on the study budget later in this page

Buying holiday hours

We offer you the opportunity to buy five holiday days , based on a 40-hour workweek, calculated pro-rata if you work part-time. You cannot file a request for this kind of leave through NMBRS. So, please talk to the Request for Leave role to get this arranged.

Note that you won’t acquire holiday allowance, or unemployment rights during those days. We do have some costs, for example, because we continue the payment of the employer's and employee’s contribution of the pension. We will take care of this, so this is a gift from the organization! This goes for the 5 days on a full-time base employment contract. If you want to take more time off you can take longer unpaid leave, the extra costs will be your own responsibility.

Unpaid leave (longer period)

If you want to take a longer leave, for example, to travel the world for a few months, then you may possibly take a longer unpaid leave, provided that the business conditions permit it. This has an effect on your pension plan.
