Leave and Workers' Compensation
Supporting your well-being with comprehensive Leave and Workers' Compensation benefits.
Types of Leave
We understand the importance of taking time away from work. Our leave benefits are designed to provide you with financial support while helping you balance your family, professional, and personal needs.
Personal Leave (12-month employees)
Personal Leave is available for when you need time off for personal reasons, such as a vacation or illness.
Major Medical Leave
Major Medical Leave gives you the time you need for personal illness or injury, medical appointments, or to care for a sick immediate family member.
Family and Medical Leave (FMLA)
FMLA provides job-protected leave with continued medical benefits, allowing you to care for yourself or a family member with a serious illness, bond with a new baby or adopted child, or manage the affairs of a family member called to active military duty.
Donated Leave
You can donate your Personal or Major Medical Leave to help a colleague who has exhausted all of their leave.
Leave of Absence
If you need to take a leave of absence, there are several options available, including Leave of Absence with Pay, Leave of Absence without Pay, and Extended Leave of Absence.
