REQUESTING LEAVE

We know that taking time away from work can come with many questions — whether it’s for your own health, your family, or a personal matter. Our goal is to make the process clear and supportive, no matter the reason for your leave.

Common examples include:

  • Taking medical leave for surgery, recovery, or treatment.
  • Using parental leave after the birth or adoption of a child.
  • Taking leave to care for an ill spouse, child, or parent.
  • Leave without pay requests

How to Request Leave

Step 1: Notify your supervisor as soon as possible.

Step 2: Email payroll with the reason for your requested leave (e.g. medical leave, parental leave, maternity leave, etc.) and anticipated leave dates.

Step 3: HR will review your email and send you the appropriate form to complete.

Step 4: Once the completed form is received by HR, we will review it, confirm eligibility, and communicate next steps - including pay, benefits, and return-to-work information.
