Oselmail compassionate leave
A very specific topic!
OSLEmail is a system used by the UK's Ministry of Defence (MOD) to manage employee leave, including compassionate leave. Here's a brief overview:
What is compassionate leave?
Compassionate leave is a type of leave that allows employees to take time off work to deal with a personal emergency or bereavement. This can include:
- The death of a close family member (e.g., spouse, partner, child, parent, or sibling)
- Serious illness or injury of a close family member
- Serious illness or injury of the employee themselves
- Other exceptional circumstances, such as a natural disaster or a serious accident
How to request compassionate leave using OSLEmail
To request compassionate leave using OSLEmail, follow these steps:
- Log in to your OSLEmail account using your MOD username and password.
- Click on the "Leave" tab and select "Request Leave".
- Choose the type of leave you are requesting (in this case, "Compassionate Leave").
- Enter the dates you require for leave, including the start and end dates.
- Provide a brief explanation of the reason for your leave request (e.g., "My mother has passed away and I need to attend the funeral").
- Attach any supporting documentation, such as a death certificate or a doctor's note (if applicable).
- Submit your leave request.
What happens after submitting a compassionate leave request?
Once you submit your compassionate leave request, your manager will review it and respond to you as soon as possible. If your request is approved, your leave will be recorded in your OSLEmail account, and you will receive a confirmation email.
Important notes
- Compassionate leave is usually granted on a case-by-case basis, and the MOD may require additional information or documentation to support your request.
- The amount of compassionate leave you are entitled to may vary depending on your individual circumstances and the MOD's policies.
- You should always check with your manager or HR department if you are unsure about the process or requirements for requesting compassionate leave.
