The purpose of NCU Training’s compassionate leave policy is to provide time off for employees in the event of a personal or family crisis.
All employees are covered by NCU Training’s compassionate leave policy.
NCU Training understands that, from time to time, employees require time off in the event of a personal/ family crisis such as serious illnesses or bereavement. The organisation will consider an employee’s request for reasonable periods of paid leave. In such circumstances, compassionate leave will always be granted at the discretion of the Company.
An employee who requires compassionate leave should approach his/her Manager and explain the circumstances.
NCU Training will grant four days compassionate leave for bereavement in the immediate family. Immediate family means father, mother, brother, sister, partner, daughter or son.
In the case of grandparents or in-laws up to two days, bereavement leave may be given.
If extenuating circumstances prevail, the Manager will have the discretion to authorise up to a further two days.
Short periods of paid or unpaid leave may be granted as required, but at the discretion of the relevant Manager, to whom advance applications must be made.
