Past experience suggests that only 50% of the directors will use the past leave due to them, while researchers and laboratory assistants still employed in the 2022 financial year will use 90%.

Maternity leave.

In order to encourage the job satisfaction and productivity of female employees, female employees are allowed 90 days of fully paid maternity leave per annum. This leave is non-accumulating and is unable to be paid out in cash if not taken. The recently married females’ employees (8 in number) are excited about the benefit.
