Reminder to take annual leave
As we enter 2026, the Human Resources Department would like to remind you that it is important to plan and take periods of leave throughout the year.
We would remind you that all entity heads should make sure that their staff take regular days of paid leave so that they can enjoy beneficial rest periods throughout the year.
Managers can view the balance of leave of their entity at any time in their HR portal: Manager view > "Temps de travail" > "Consulter les soldes de congés" (Working time > View leave balances).
See this tutorial video for the main principles and guidelines – click here. As an employer, it is the Institut Pasteur's responsibility to ensure that its staff take regular paid leave.
All staff can see how many leave days they have accrued on the HR portal, via "Mon Portail de services" (My Service Portal), or directly here.
To request leave or see how many days of annual leave, additional leave (ARTT) or absence during core working hours (APF leave) you have left, go to your HR portal.
Don't forget that you need to take all annual leave accrued by May 31, 2026 before June 1, 2027. You cannot carry over any unused leave.
