Common use of Employee Notice of Leave Clause in Contracts

Employee Notice of Leave. Although the City of Cathedral City recognizes that emergencies arise which may require employees to request immediate leave, employees are required to give as much notice as possible of their need for leave. If leave is foreseeable, at least 30 day’s notice is required. In addition, if an employee knows that he/she will need leave in the future, but does not know the exact date(s) (e.g. for the birth of a child or take care of a newborn), the employee shall inform his/her supervisor as soon as possible that such leave will be needed. Such notice may be orally given. If the City of Cathedral City determines that an employee’s notice is inadequate or the employee knew about the requested leave in advance of the request, the City of Cathedral City may delay the granting of the leave until it can, in its discretion, adequately cover the position with a substitute.
