Hi,
We are entitled to 37 days of leave per year, which includes Earned Leave (EL), Casual Leave (CL), and Sick Leave (SL). Female employees are entitled to a maximum of 12 weeks of paid maternity leave. In the case of a miscarriage, she can avail of 6 weeks of paid leave.
My question is, are these leaves in addition to the 37 days of leave already provided to each employee, or are they part of the 37 days?
Kind regards,
