Life + Family

You have important priorities outside of work. That’s why Pfizer provides colleagues with benefits such as vacation, paid and unpaid time off, child and elder care support, discounts, and more — so you can be there for each of life’s moments.

Vacation, Holidays, and Leave

Pfizer recognizes the importance of taking time away from work to relax, refresh, and recharge.

15 Company-paid holidays

This includes a Wellness Day to help you regroup and focus on you!

Up to three weeks of paid vacation (and more as you reach certain service milestones)

If you are a benefits eligible colleague, you also have the option to purchase 1 to 4 weeks of additional vacation.

Parental and Caregiver leave

  • 12 weeks of paid parental leave plus 14 weeks of unpaid parental leave for new parents, plus
  • Up to 10 days annually of paid caregiver leave each year to care for an ill family member.

Other types of leave
