Annual Leave
To balance your work and free time, we want you to spend quality time away doing what you enjoy. Our annual leave package is intended to give you the downtime and flexibility you need to stay happy and healthy.
All full-time employees accrue up to 28 days of leave on an annual basis, increasing to 30 days with 5 years of service. During Open Enrolment, you will have the option to purchase up to 3 extra days of annual leave per year.
Don’t forget, you can carry forward up to 8 days of annual leave into the New Year, but these must be used by 30 June. Annual leave is not paid out or carried forward beyond this date.
