Request Type
Options include:
- Sick Leave - Please do not show up to work sick. Submit a sick leave request as soon as possible.
- Vacation - Requests are to be sent in advance, especially if it will be for a longer duration. General rule of thumb is to submit a request as many days in advance as the trip is long. (e.g. if it's a 5-day trip, submit a request at least 5 days in advance)
- Extended Leave of Absence - This is reserved for special situations and most commonly, for internship opportunities. Submitting a leave of absence is implying that you will return once the absence is over.
* once submitted, look for approval status in the data table below.
