At StarkSouk, we offer flexible time-off and leave policies for our external partners, including agencies, studios, and freelancers. You’re free to take the time off you need without the requirement to explain your reasons. However, we ask that you use this freedom responsibly.

Guidelines to Follow:

  1. Workload and Deadlines:

    While you're welcome to take time off as needed, your time off mustn’t impact the work. Deadlines must still be met, and the quality of work must not suffer. This is non-negotiable unless a critical health issue arises.

  2. Typical Working Days:

    We typically work 19-23 days per month, depending on the workload and deadlines. If there is a high workload or urgent deadlines, we will inform you in advance so that you can plan accordingly.

  3. Extended Time Off:

    If you plan to take more than a week off during an active project, please inform your team or project lead at least 15-20 days ( 3 weeks ) in advance. This helps ensure that the project timeline remains on track.

  4. Special Events:

    For significant life events, such as a wedding, becoming a parent, or taking on a caregiver role, please provide at least one month's notice. This allows us to plan for any necessary adjustments in your work schedule.

  5. Weekly Task Scheduling:

    Every Monday, we schedule tasks for the upcoming week. If you need to take time off during the week, please inform the project lead in advance so we can make the necessary arrangements.
