Shemittah is each seventh year (5775 was one of them), as commanded in Leviticus ch.25 and Deuteronomy ch.15. The main feature is that many forms of agricultural work are to be abstained from in Israel for the whole year. This command is observed by religious (Hareidi) farmers in Israel.

What is the purpose of a sabbatical?

Sabbatical or a sabbatical (from Latin sabbaticus, from Greek sabbatikos, from Hebrew shabbat, i.e., Sabbath, literally a "ceasing") is a rest from work, or a hiatus, often lasting from two months to a year. The concept of sabbatical has a source in shmita, described several places in the Bible (Leviticus 25, for example, where there is a commandment to desist from working the fields in the seventh year). In the strict sense, therefore, sabbatical lasts a year.
