TEAM MEMBER BENEFITS AND LEAVE OF ABSENCE PROGRAMS
Personal Leave 311
Effective Date : 01 / 01 / 2017
We understand that there may be times where you will need to take a period of time away from work to fulfill personal obligations that are not covered by the other types of leave that we offer . Eligible Team Members may request personal leave only after having completed one year of service . With that in mind , we offer unpaid personal leaves of up to six weeks in length .
If you have a need to take personal leave , you should request as much advance approval from your supervisor as possible . However , please understand that we may not be able to grant your request for personal leave , as we will evaluate each request on a case-by-case basis . In doing so , we will consider a variety of factors , including input from your manager , current workloads , staffing levels , and your disciplinary status . Also , in most cases , personal leave may not be used to extend leaves of absence taken under other policies in this handbook .
If you take approved leave , you will be required to use any available paid time off as part of the approved period of leave . For information about what happens to your insurance benefits , vacation and PTO accruals , and eligibility for holiday pay during leave taken under this policy , see our Impact of Leaves of Absence on Team Member Benefits policy .
When a personal leave ends , every reasonable effort will be made to return you to the same position , if it is available , or to a similar available position for which you are qualified . However , we cannot guarantee reinstatement in all cases . If you fail to report to work promptly at the expiration of the approved leave period or fail to communicate with us about your possible need for additional leave , we will consider you to have resigned employment .
Military Leave 312
Effective Date : 01 / 01 / 2017
You are entitled to take military leave for any absences related to military service in accordance with the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act ( USERRA ). Advance notice of military service is required , unless military necessity prevents such notice or it is otherwise impossible or unreasonable .
While all Team Members are eligible to take military leave , regular full time and regular part time Team Members who have completed 90 calendar days of service in an eligible classification may request up to 10 days of paid military leave over any one-year period . Military leave pay will be calculated on your base pay rate times the number of hours you would otherwise have worked on the day of absence . We may also deduct the amount you receive from the military from any military leave pay we may provide .
The portion of any military leaves of absence in excess of 10 days will be unpaid . However , you may use any available paid time off for the absence .
For information about what happens to your insurance benefits , vacation and PTO accruals , and eligibility for holiday pay during an extended leave taken under this policy , see our Impact of Leaves of Absence on Team Member Benefits policy .
