If you are a part-time employee working less than 5 days per week, please submit a request with the Support Centre to confirm your working schedule.
Paid time off
Adobe provides time off so you can relax and recharge. Please make arrangements with your manager before taking time off. The holiday year runs from January 1 to December 31.
How much you earn
Paid time off accrual begins immediately upon starting work and is accrued by a set amount each year. The annual leave entitlement for full-time employees is 25 working days per calendar year.
Paid time off for part-time employees is prorated to the number of days you work per week, not to the number of hours.
- Example 1: You work 3 days per week, so you are eligible for 15 days (calculation: 3x25/5 = 15 days).
- Example 2: You work 4 days per week, so you are eligible for 20 days (calculation: 4x25/5 = 20 days).
Taking time off
Adobe encourages you to use your full annual leave each year to rest and rejuvenate. In some circumstances, you may carry over unused days into the following year to be used within 18 months, with manager approval. Days not used during the additional 18 months will be forfeited.
If you leave Adobe, any PTO you have available, based on your termination date, will be paid to you.
Schedule your time off in advance with your manager, then submit your request through Workday. Follow these instructions.
Your manager will receive a notification that you have entered PTO in Workday, but they will not be requested to approve, which is why it is important that you get their approval prior to entering in Workday.

Time off FAQs
How do I find out my time off balance for the current year?
You can view your balance for the current year in Workday (see instructions).
How do I request half days off?
There is no option to report half days in Workday. Adobe would like to foster an environment of trust and flexibility. If you need to take a few hours off to attend to personal matters, discuss it with your manager, and rearrange your work time accordingly. You do not need to track these hours.
If you want or need to take two half-day holidays, enter one full day in Workday (see instructions). However, discuss this with your manager before taking the time or entering it into Workday.
