About this course
Leave looks simple until an employee resigns with 40 days on the books, a supervisor rejects a sick note, or a new father asks for four months off. This course gives you the rules, the calculations and the routines to handle leave correctly and consistently. It is written for people who process leave every week and for managers who approve it.
