Cuti Tahunan Tanpa Had: Adakah Ia Benar-Benar Berkesan?
APR 25, 2026
Cuti tanpa had kedengaran seperti faedah idaman. Tetapi realitinya lebih rumit. Berikut ialah penilaian jujur yang diperlukan oleh pemimpin HR.
Daya tarikan cuti tanpa had
Unlimited annual leave policies, where employees take as much time off as they need provided their work is done and performance remains strong, have become a staple of tech company benefits packages. The logic is appealing: treat employees as adults, trust them to manage their own time, and avoid the administrative overhead of tracking accrual. For candidates from traditional environments, it signals a progressive, high-trust culture.
Mengapa ia sering memakan diri
The research on unlimited leave is mixed at best. Several studies have found that employees with unlimited leave policies take, on average, fewer days off than those with fixed entitlements. The reason is social: without a clear entitlement, employees are unsure what is acceptable and default to caution. Senior leaders who rarely take leave set an implicit norm. The result is a benefit that sounds generous but actually delivers less rest and recovery than a conventional 25-day policy.
Cara menjadikannya berkesan
If you want to offer unlimited leave, set a minimum rather than just a maximum. State explicitly that employees are expected to take at least 20 days per year. Track leave-taking data and flag anyone consistently taking fewer than 15 days for a conversation with their manager. Require senior leaders to take and publicly communicate their own leave, modelling the behaviour you want. Pair the policy with a clear performance framework so employees know their work output is what is measured, not the hours they are present.
Dimensi undang-undang
Di UK, semua pekerja mengekalkan 5.6 minggu cuti tahunan statutori mereka tanpa mengira sebarang dasar tanpa had. Implikasi praktikalnya ialah anda tidak boleh menguatkuasakan peruntukan 'gunakan atau hilang' ke atas cuti statutori tanpa notis yang sewajarnya dan peluang untuk mengambilnya. Pastikan dasar cuti tanpa had anda secara jelas mengekalkan hak statutori dan anda mempunyai proses untuk membayar cuti statutori yang tidak digunakan apabila penamatan berlaku.
