Designing a Sabbatical Leave Policy: What Are Your Best Practices and Experiences?

Hi,

I am looking into the possibility of designing a policy on Sabbatical leaves for our employees. I kindly request you to share experiences and industry best practices on this topic.

Regards

Hi Rajni,

Sabbatical leaves are generally given by some organizations to employees to take some time off from work and go for further studies outside the country. It is seen by HR professionals as a retention technique, providing job security to an employee. Sabbatical leaves can be for a year or more.

Thanks.

Hi,

I wish to know under sabbatical leave, is it possible to get the employment certificate and close down all other benefits. Will one still be on the payroll or be removed, and is he valid for promotions during the period of leave.
