Leave
The Labor Standards Act prescribes minimum periods of paid annual leave based on an employee's seniority. 10 days of annual leave must be allowed following the employee's first 6 months of service. The minimum amount of annual leave increases each year thereafter following a fixed schedule (as per the contract).
Several forms of unpaid leave are also provided by law, including maternity leave, child care leave, family care leave and nursing leave.

Famous quotes containing the word leave:
“Although I mean it, and project the meaning
As hard as I can into its brushed-metal surface,
It cannot, in this deteriorating climate, pick up
Where I leave off.”

“There is a hearty Puritanism in the view of human nature which pervades the instrument of 1787. It is the work of men who believed in original sin, and were resolved to leave open for transgressors no door which they could possibly shut.”
