A leave ( LOA ) is the time period in which a person should be away from one's main job while maintaining the employee's status. This term may be used more limited to exclude other periods away from the workplace (eg, holidays, paid leave, holidays, hiatuses, leave, work from the original program), with LOA used for exceptional circumstances; in general, such arrangements have termination determined on a specific date or after a particular event occurs.

Classification

Payday

Generally, paid leave is granted at the request of the employer, or in accordance with the requirements of the law or contract. Some examples of LOAs that are generally paid include employee injury to employment, death, jury duties, or if the employer is performing repairs or other activities within the premises in which employees normally work that prevent them from performing their duties.

Unpaid leave

LOA Unlimited generally at the request of employees or as a result of alleged violations on the part of employees. Missing leave can be obtained for various reasons requested by the employee, including active duty calls for backup military personnel, or to meet the health needs of the employee or family member of the employee.

In many jurisdictions, it is up to the employer's discretion, whether the employee's request for leave is not approved or not. In the United States, the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 defines the particular circumstances under which leave approval is mandatory. In addition, the Employment Law and Uniform Services Uniform Rights (USERRA) dictate certain circumstances in which the LOA should be granted.

During periods where employer markets are flagging, some companies offer certain employee classes the opportunity to take unpaid leave as additional vacation time, in an effort to reduce temporary operational costs without the complications of layoffs, and potentially permanently lose critical employees. Such periods are referred to as absence leave in lieu of dismissal .

In the academic world, "unpaid leave" has no negative connotations. This is used to give an opportunity to a professor or staff member to take a non-contradictory position (eg, political position) without losing the original affiliation.

Continued benefits

Generally, the continuation of certain benefits, such as health insurance, is maintained. Other benefits such as Life Insurance usually require employees to pay premiums to be continued during the LOA.

For benefits based on the employee's time in his/her work, the period of absence may be included in the consecutive accounting of the service for certain benefits. If time is not included, it is simply omitted from the count, but is not considered a break in the service.
