Parental leave

We believe that parenting is a joy and a responsibility that should be shared by all parents. Anyone (regardless of gender) welcoming a newborn (biological or adopted) is offered 6 months paid and a further 6 months unpaid leave.

This can be taken anytime from 6 months before the child is born to when the child is 24 months old.

Bereavement

Bereavement leave of up to 15 days per year may be taken as needed.

Special events

Leave of up to 15 days for significant life events (for instance, if you are getting married) may be taken as needed.

Very sick leave

Time off for serious illness such as dengue etc. does not count as leave.

Beyond this, additional unpaid leave is available during the year if required. The salary is adjusted prorata based on number of days of additional leaves taken.

No one approves leaves at nilenso. We trust you to manage your leaves, and keep the relevant people informed.
