Recharge

Recharge is S&P Global’s flexible time-off approach under which there is no prescribed maximum amount of time off you can take. We believe it’s important to take time away from the office for your hobbies, loved ones, personal responsibilities and wellbeing.

By spending time away from the office and managing this important aspect of your wellbeing, you’re well-positioned to do your best work. Recharge days can be used for any number of reasons, such as to:

• Travel or explore attractions and activities
• Celebrate a birthday or career service anniversary
• Attend a child’s school activities
• Visit a wellness provider
• Take a well-being day
