Generally, most companies provide the employee with anywhere from four to six sick days per year. (The Family and Medical Leave Act is also something you should know about and we discuss it below.) Sabbatical is a time-off-with-pay benefit that is usually confined to executive-level personnel.
Some companies also offer personal leave in addition to sick leave in order to alleviate the abuse of sick leave. Usually, these programs allow the employee to take three to four personal holidays per year to conduct personal business or just to get away from the hustle and bustle of the office for a day or two.
