Leaves - Generally Clause Samples
The "Leaves - Generally" clause defines the general rules and entitlements regarding employee leaves of absence within an organization. It typically outlines the types of leave available, such as vacation, sick leave, and personal days, and may specify eligibility criteria, accrual rates, and procedures for requesting time off. By establishing clear guidelines for taking leave, this clause helps ensure consistency, fairness, and compliance with legal requirements, while also providing employees with a clear understanding of their rights and obligations regarding time away from work.
