Excerpt

General policy

On occasion, an employee may find that personal, health, or family situations make it necessary to be absent from work. Reliant desires to support its employees in times of stress and, if possible, accommodate needs that can arise unexpectedly. Leaves of absence for limited periods of time will be permitted, in Reliant's sole discretion, depending on the reasons and circumstances that prompt such a request. Such a leave of absence must be supported by valid reasons and approved by both the local supervisor and the Reliant office. Leaves of absence are normally granted only for the reasons specified below.

Info

Additional state or local laws may apply to leaves of absence. Please reach out to your Program Team with any questions.

titleMilitary Leave

Reliant will grant military leave as necessary in compliance with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations.  Employees taking part in a variety of military duties are covered under this policy. Such military duties include leaves of absence taken by members of the uniformed services, including active duty, reserve or National Guard, for training, periods of active military service, and funeral honors duty, as well as time spent being examined to determine fitness to perform such service.

Unless military necessity prevents it, or is otherwise impossible or unreasonable, employees should provide their supervisor with notice of the need for short-term leave (fewer than seven consecutive days) as far in advance as is reasonable under the circumstances. For a longer leave period of consecutive days or more, employees should provide their Program Team with written notice of leave as far in advance as is reasonable.

See below for the policies on pay and PTO depending on the length of leave. The lengths are defined by the number of consecutive days:
