Extended Personal Leaves. Full and Part Time Employees with at least one year of service who are performing at satisfactory or better performance level may request an unpaid leave of absence of at least one (1) month and no more than twelve (12) months in duration. This leave is for personal reasons and may not be used to work elsewhere or earn replacement income. This leave may not be taken in conjunction with any other leaves so as to extend any absence beyond twelve (12) months. The Employer may grant such leaves in its sole discretion. No Paid Holidays will accrue while an Employee is on Leave, no Vacation entitlement will be earned and Vacation pay will be prorated for the portion of the calendar year the Employee was at work. Further it is understood that following such leave the Employer will attempt to return the Employee to her former Position if there is an opening or make an effort to place her in any other appropriate vacancy. If there is no available Position or if the Employee chooses not to return, then employment and seniority will cease on the last day of the scheduled leave and there shall be no severance or notice.
