Shared Leave Request Form
What is this form?
The Shared Leave Request Form is a document that allows employees to request voluntary shared leave from their coworkers. This form is specifically designed for situations where an employee needs to take time off due to a medical condition and is seeking donated leave hours from fellow employees. It differs from regular leave forms by focusing on the process of obtaining leave donations rather than simply requesting time off.

- Leave request details: Specifies the number of hours requested and the medical condition requiring leave.
- Use of donated leave: Outlines the requirement to exhaust all other leave types before utilizing donated leave.
- Management approval: Includes space for management to approve the shared leave request.
- Return of unused donated leave: Describes the process for returning excess hours to the donors if unused.
