Employees wishing to utilize paid leave time should notify their Staffing Specialist at least seven
(7) days prior to the desired paid sick leave dates, or if that is not possible give notification as
soon as practicable.
Generally, paid sick leave is not considered a vested benefit. Therefore, accrued but unused
leave time is not paid out upon termination of employment, unless required by law. Please
refer to the notice for the state you work.
HOLIDAYS
We recognize the following holidays each year: New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence
Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas. The holidays will be time off without pay,
since you are only paid for hours worked.
If a holiday falls on a weekend, we will inform you when the holiday will be observed.
Ordinarily, holidays falling on a Saturday will be observed the preceding Friday; holidays falling
on a Sunday will be observed the following Monday.
In addition, time off without pay may be granted to employees who desire to observe a
religious holiday that is not recognized as an official holiday by us or the client, provided undue
hardship is not introduced to the company or the client.
FAMILY AND MEDICAL LEAVE ACT
In accordance with the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), we will provide eligible
employees with job-protected leave for up to 26 weeks during a 12-month period (or as
allowed by local and/or state law – see HR for details). This job-protected leave may be paid,
unpaid, or a combination of paid and unpaid, depending on the individual circumstances as
specified in our policy. The reason for the leave request will dictate the maximum number of
weeks of job-protected leave. If a need arises where you need to take leave that may qualify
for leave under the FMLA please contact your Staffing Specialist for additional information
including your eligibility for FMLA leave.
MILITARY LEAVE
We and the client supports those who serve in the armed forces to protect our country. In
keeping with this commitment, and in accordance with state and federal law, if you must be
absent from work for military service you are entitled to take a military leave of absence. You
may use any available paid time off for the absence. When you are on a temporary or extended
military leave you may, at your option, use any or all accrued paid annual or personal leave
during your absence. When your military leave ends, you will be reinstated to the position you
formerly held, or to a comparable position, as long as you meet the requirements of federal and
