Leave of Absence

The MCSD leave process requires employees to apply for a leave of absence if the employee will be out of work more than 5 consecutive days. When an employee is out of work for more than 5 consecutive days The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) or an Extended Leave of Absence is available. Employees are required to notify their supervisor/worksite of the absence. Failure to notify the supervisor/worksite could lead to employment concerns including job abandonment processing.
