Return from Leave Employees who have been on an approved leave of absence may return to work before the date specified on the leave as the date of return. An employee on Leave of Absence who fails to report to work at the end of such leave, or fails to obtain a written extension before the leave expiration date and does not report to work, is absent without an approved leave, unless the failure was unavoidable due to injury or illness, which must be documented in writing and certified by a physician as soon as possible in order to be considered for return to work. An additional exception may be considered when an employee is involved in an emergency situation beyond the control and advance planning of the employee which causes the employee the inability to report to work from the leave by the designated time. Proper documentation of such occurrences is required. If an employee is ready to return to work sooner than expected, WSF shall ensure that the employee is returned to work as soon as practicable.
