Chapter 5
Amount of time off
[ch 5: page 42]There is no set limit to the amount of time off that can be taken in an emergency. However, an employer may want to discuss how the amount of time off might affect the employee’s work.
The right to time off is intended to cover unforeseen matters so employees who know in advance that they are going to need time off may need to apply for another type of leave, possibly parental leave (see Chapter 7).
