How do I request leave for my own serious health condition?
If you are requesting leave for your own serious health condition you would need to have the following documents completed (these documents are under the QuickLinks on the Leave Webpage) and returned to Human Resources:


- Leave Request Form – completed by the employee and signed for approval by supervisor
- Employee Certification of Health Care Provider – completed by the employee’s physician and must review employee’s job description
- Release to Return to Work – prior to returning to work the employee’s physician must complete this document and review the employee’s job description

Please note that if you are a benefited employee and are incapacitated for seven or more consecutive days for your own serious health condition and is doctor certified you may be eligible for Short-Term Disability leave.
