# Vacation & Well-being

### **Additional days off and recognition days**

Besides vacation days and days off which are determined based on local law and local policies, in Infobip we also have additional days off that employees can use.

* **Recognition days**: up to 3 Days per year. Your line manager is the one who decides to reward an employee with recognition days for exceptional results or contribution.
* **Study or Event days**: 3 days based on Manager approval for education, exam preparation, or participating in work-related events such as speaking on conferences.
* **BipUp Skills (volunteering)**: up to 3 days (8 hours per day= total of 24 hours) a year for volunteering.
* **First day of School:** 1 day for parents for kids' three first years at school.

Implementation of additional days off in the company can depend on local legislation and processes so there may be some differences across engineering locations. In the long run, we are working on making all additional days off standard across all locations.

### **Celebrating successes and the community**

In Infobip we don't only celebrate company successes. We want to celebrate your successes and milestones as part of our team.&#x20;

* **Employee Anniversaries** - Nobody forgets their first year in Infobip. Neither do we. That's why we celebrate this special occasion. We also celebrate big milestones like 3, 5 or 10 years with us and all the things achieved together over the years.
* **Child Birth/Adoption** - The birth and adoption of a child are some of the most life-changing moments. We want to let every employee know that we are with them in these special moments.
* **Infobip community events** - At different Infobip offices, our teams find different ways to bond and celebrate great moments. It can be charity events or races, competing together as a team in different activities, organizing celebrations for holidays, Secret Santa, hiking, celebrating big milestones or simply having Fridays be pizza days - whatever fills our hearts with joy ![(big grin)](https://confluence.infobip.com/s/sajxcw/8703/189cb2l/_/images/icons/emoticons/biggrin.svg)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://infobipengineering.gitbook.io/handbook/benefits/vacation-and-well-being.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
