The best way to maintain a balanced life is to take some breaks from work and dedicate time to fun, friends, family, and of course—yourself. We have programs to help you take time off to care for what really matters in your life, whether that means a visit to the doctor, taking care of a family member, or just some “me time.”
Proofpoint provides employees with a flexible vacation program. You simply coordinate your time off needs with your manager and submit your request for time off in Workday.
Depending on location, full-time employees receive up to twelve (12) days or ninety-six (96) hours of paid sick time per year. Part-time employees are eligible for six (6) days or forty-eight hours of paid sick time per year.
Proofpoint generally provides 10 paid holidays per year for employees. The dates and holidays observed are subject to the calendar year.
Planning time away from work to grieve after the loss of a loved one* is an important consideration.

When taking Bereavement Time Off, please record the amount of time taken off in Workday.
