Personal Leave of Absence Policy

The following sample outlines a set of policies and procedures for personal leave of absence to coordinate the needs of the employee and company.

The purpose of this policy is to provide employees at a company time off with compensation. According to this sample policy, employees may request a personal leave of absence (LOA) for compelling personal reasons and if the absence exceeds a designated amount of calendar days, the employee is then required to request the leave by submitting a LOA form to his/her immediate supervisor. In addition, the employee will continue to receive the same health benefits that he/she was covered under prior to the commencement of the leave.
