This paper explores the evolving role of sabbaticals in higher education, particularly emphasizing their potential impact on early career researchers (ECRs). Traditionally, sabbaticals have been viewed as a privilege for senior academics, designed to provide periods of rejuvenation and scholarly productivity. However, we argue that ECRs, who face unique pressures such as the need for rapid publication, networking, and managing administrative duties, could greatly benefit from sabbatical opportunities. The article highlights barriers ECRs encounter, such as funding limitations and institutional resistance, and calls for a rethinking of policies to include diverse and flexible sabbatical formats. These changes, supported by government, institutional, and departmental initiatives, could help mitigate burnout, foster innovation, and contribute to the long-term sustainability of academic careers.
