# Paid Time Off

Time-off can help you rejuvenate and clear your mind. This is critical to do your best work. In addition to the holidays, we provide in the [Holiday List](/employee-handbook/benefits-and-perks/holiday-list.md) we also provide the following types of paid leaves.

| **Leave Type**       | **Duration in days** |
| -------------------- | -------------------- |
| Sick & Casual Leaves | 8                    |
| Annual Leave         | 12                   |
| Marriage Leave       | 5                    |
| Paternity Leave      | 5                    |
| Maternity Leave      | 84 - 182             |

To know more about how to apply please take a look at the [Leave Policy ](/employee-handbook/how-we-work/leave-policy.md)document. We understand that everyone has different circumstances and needs. Our philosophy with leaves is "we trust you". Take what time you need and lead a balanced and healthy life, so that when you are working you are productive.
