The Long-term saving model gives you the opportunity to build up hours over a number of years in order to take a lengthy period of interrupted leave.
Under certain conditions, your manager can grant a premium in the form of time and/or money. In accordance with Article 5.5 of the Collective Labour Agreement, you can save up to 72 hours of holiday leave per year and you can select a total savings period of three, four or five years. You can apply for long-term saving (and start saving leave) using the ‘Take action now’ button on this page.
In accordance with Article 5.3 of the Collective Labour Agreement, you can supplement this leave with a maximum of 76 holiday leave hours per year under the Individual choices model if you wish.
You must take your sabbatical within one year after the end of your chosen total savings period. You can request long-term leave using the Special leave self-service option; under ‘Type of leave’ select ‘Long-term saving variant’.
