The employee agrees to keep the personnel office informed of their progress or prognosis during any medical leave of absence. Section 68(a). Absence due to appointment with a U.S. Government agency concerning immigration status will be treated as Company advance leave under the Company's personal leave policy, and not recorded as an absence incident, provided the employee notifies Human Resources within two (2) days of receipt of notice of a required appointment and the employee provides documentation from the agency of such appointment. Employees may use vacation days in 8-hour increments when attending appointments with a U.S. Government agency under this section. In no event may vacation hours be used to increase total compensation beyond 40 hours per week.

Such vacation, however, must be taken in the largest increment available, up to 40 hours, based on the employee's remaining vacation time.
