How often do you take Emergency leave?

Hi asxenon, I would take emergency leave when there is necessary. But this seldom happens to me as I always try what I could to rearrange my time so that it won't affect my usual work. But there is still moment unexpected matter would happen to us in a sudden. Once I found I was really uncomfortable when getting up in the morning. My jaw and elbows were painful. Running nose and coughing made me to feel so ill. The pain killer which I was used to take when feeling unwell didn't work at all. Seeing this my husband then made a call to my office and informed that I needed an emergency leave badly. unavoidable he had to take emergency leave as well to take me to the clinic. I still got pay as usual though I had taken emergency leave, as long as medical leave certificate from acknowledged doctor was submitted. I haven't applied unpaid leave before for I could enjoy long term like a month or so by the end of the year. I always take this opportunity to enjoy foreign trip or doing other interesting activities that need longer time Hopefully everything there goes smoothly and your daughter has recovered from the high fever. As a caring mom we always put our loving kid as priority. What we care most is our kid and others like money, etc are next in importance. Happy posting

I had taken a EL leave before 1 month when my big brother was admitted in hospital & was serious. That time I had given a call to my Boss for emergency leave. My Boss has also sanctioned my EL. The situation never comes to take a unpaid leaves, because my leaves are always pending & if I take leave first I get sanctioned from my Boss after leave.
