I'm Lost! LOA scheduling questions

[StargazerOmega]

So, I'm starting a month long LOA on March 4. When filling out the form, I noted the last day I was available as March 2. Fast forward to today and the new schedule that has me scheduled for 3/6.

My question is: Should I find someone to take the shift or should I talk to my ETL and remind her I'm going to be gone?

Also, when should I call the store to let them know I'm returning?

Talk to your ETL first. If the LOA was approved, that's on them to sort out. It wouldn't hurt to check with some coworkers to see if anyone else is available to take your shift, though.

I've heard that you should call the store to let them know when you're returning two weeks prior to your return. That way they can get you started back in on the new schedule

Thanks for the response! 🙂

If you don't return from an LOA isn't it a voluntary term?

Job abandonment is voluntary. Still can be entered no rehire.
