Hi Everyone

As part of our review of current benefits we are looking at allowing employees to have a paid day of for their Birthday. I wondered if any of you had this benefit currently and what you have put in place to make this work ? Any comments welcome thanks

Hi @Clair Hollick, I've worked in a couple of places where we have been given birthday leave. It's a nice little extra to have.

Interested to hear what others think/offer?

thanks for replying Amy, I look forward to any other responses from the rest of the group.

sounds like a great idea but we don't do this. We do however give 25 days plus BH so not sure what your annual leave is

Hi @Clair Hollick

We give all our staff a bonus birthday holiday. We also have a holiday loyalty scheme where they gain up to 5 extra days holiday a year based on the length of time they stay with the company. Definitely goes down well with the team. In my opinion, a happy and rested team, is a happy and productive one!

Hi @David Holloway , would you be willing to share the criteria of your birthday holiday scheme etc? thanks Marie
