• Please confirm that you have discussed your leave application with your PMs and BAs by selecting Yes in your ZOHO Annual Leave Application form, as shown in the screenshot below

  

• Do add the names of your project’s PMs and BAs (and other team members whom you work closely with, if necessary) in the ‘Team ID’ section.

Sick Leave#

• For Sick Leave, please attach the Medical Certificate and/or Letter of Medical Appointment from the clinic or hospital (if you are unwell and just need 1-2 days of self-recovery, you might not need to attach the Medical Certificate)

• Staff requesting sick leave for medical appointments are required to attach a letter confirming the appointment from their healthcare provider along with their leave application

• Please confirm that you have informed your Project Managers (PMs) and Business Analysts (BAs) by selecting Yes in your ZOHO Annual Leave Application form, as shown in the screenshot below

However, under special circumstances (e.g. urgent personal matters, school’s requirements), you may apply for leave and must inform your supervisor, PMs and BAs. Your leave application will be subject to Management’s approval.
