When you take leave, you’ll, of course, have a critical look at your calendar and your colleagues and make sure that your colleagues know that you are not there before you take leave. Make a note in your calendar and communicate your absence in Slack. On this page, you will find more information about different types of leave. You can arrange everything yourself using a tool called NMBRS (app) without asking permission. But…
If you are not sure whether your leave falls under holiday hours but, for example, under care or a sudden absence, please contact the Request for Leave role, so together we can have a look at the possibilities. Also take a look on the paragraph Special Leave, for more info.
You always apply for leave by using the NMBRS app. Some circle like the clarity the absence sheet brings.
If you work full-time, you are entitled to 24 vacation days. Of these, 20 are statutory, and 4 are non-statutory.
If you work part-time, this will be calculated based on the amount of time you work. The same applies when you start or stop employment mid-year. On your payslip, you can see how many leave days you get. Please note this balance is a calculation until 31 December. If you leave employment sooner, a final invoice will be drawn up.
We think it’s important to chill for a considerable amount of time during the year. And when we say this, we really mean relax and not think about work. That’s why you must take two consecutive working weeks of vacation a year.
You need to apply for leave in advance. This is done through NMBRS (app), using the group ‘vacation leave’. Coordinate within your circle who is on holiday and when, and make sure that the important things or certain tasks are transferred to your colleagues during the time when you're on vacation.
If necessary create a note on the role in GlassFrog with who you are transferring your role to so this information is easy to find for your colleagues.
When you become ill unexpectedly during your vacation, you will keep your vacation days. Read more in the paragraph about illness.
If the situation occurs that by the end of the year you haven’t used up your full vacation hours, then you can bring 80 hours of leave (working on a full-time base) to the new year. The statutory days will expire 6 months after the calendar year in which you've accrued them. For example, the vacation days that you received in 2016 but did not use will expire on July 1st 2017.
