Special Leave Clause Samples
The Special Leave clause grants employees the right to take time off from work for specific, non-standard reasons that are not covered by regular leave entitlements such as annual or sick leave. This may include circumstances like jury duty, bereavement, or other personal emergencies, and typically requires employees to provide notice or documentation to their employer. The core function of this clause is to ensure that employees have a formal mechanism to address exceptional situations without jeopardizing their employment or regular leave balances.
