What kind of situations warrant a grant of special leave?
A. Special leave is only granted on a limited number of occasions. These include: (1) bereavement leave; (2) marital leave; (3) natural disaster leave; (4) commuter transport system failure leave; (5) pre-natal leave; (6) post-natal leave; (7) nursing time leave; (8) menstrual leave; (9) parental leave; (10) and any other time the Supervisor deems there is a special need, such as alien registration or application for extension of period of stay. (Items 1-4 and 10 are paid, and 5-9 are not paid. This may vary by terms and conditions.) The final case which allows for paid leave, “any other time the supervisor deems there is a special need,” is generally used only for things such as trips to the Immigration Office or the local city/town/village office for alien registration.
