FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

About this form

Does submitting this form approve my leave?

No. It records a request only. Your employer may operate a different booking process and can refuse particular dates subject to the applicable rules.

How much notice should I give?

Follow your contract and workplace policy. The statutory default rules apply only where a relevant agreement has not set another procedure.

Can I request leave in hours?

That depends on how your employer records entitlement and on your working pattern. Use the notes field to make the requested amount unambiguous.
