Short unpaid leave is counted in working days.

Short unpaid leave is not counted in working days because it is an absence from work without pay. Therefore, it does not contribute to the total number of days worked.
2.
A member will be deducted 1 PL & 1 CL for every 30 days of Short Unpaid leave.
Correct Answer
A. True
Explanation
This statement suggests that for every 30 days of Short Unpaid leave, a member will have 1 PL (Paid Leave) and 1 CL (Casual Leave) deducted from their leave balance. This means that if an employee takes short unpaid leave for 30 days, they will lose 1 PL and 1 CL. Therefore, the answer "True" indicates that the statement is correct.
3.
We will require the approval of the HRBP and the Local HR for short unpaid leaves less than 30 days.
Correct Answer
B. False
Explanation
The statement is false because it states that the approval of both the HRBP and the Local HR is required for short unpaid leaves less than 30 days. However, the statement does not mention any specific requirement for approval, so it cannot be assumed that both HRBP and Local HR approval is necessary. It is possible that only one of them needs to give approval or there may be other individuals or departments involved in the approval process. Therefore, the statement is not entirely accurate.
4.
There are 2 documents required for short unpaid leave.
Correct Answer
B. False
Explanation
The statement suggests that there are only 2 documents required for short unpaid leave, but the correct answer is false. This implies that there are more than 2 documents required for short unpaid leave.
5.
A member could only avail the Short Unpaid Leave when he/she already has exhausted all his/her Privileged Leave.
Correct Answer
A. True
Explanation
This statement is true because Short Unpaid Leave can only be taken when an employee has already used up all their Privileged Leave. This means that if an employee still has any Privileged Leave remaining, they cannot take Short Unpaid Leave. It implies that Short Unpaid Leave is a last resort option for employees who have already used up all their other leave entitlements.
6.
If the member still has a PL balance left in his/her balance, inform the member to utilize the PL’s first before using Short Unpaid leave.
Correct Answer
A. True
Explanation
The statement suggests that if a member has a PL (Paid Leave) balance remaining, they should use it before using Short Unpaid leave. This implies that the organization encourages the utilization of paid leave first to ensure that employees take advantage of their entitled benefits. By doing so, the company promotes a healthy work-life balance and ensures that employees are compensated for their time off. Therefore, the correct answer is true.
7.
Where do we process/record the short unpaid leave deduction in the professional form?
Correct Answer
A. Assignment page
Explanation
In the professional form, the short unpaid leave deduction is processed/recorded in the Assignment page. This page is specifically designed to capture and manage the details of an employee's assignments, including any deductions or changes related to their leave status. Therefore, it is the most appropriate place to record the short unpaid leave deduction accurately and ensure it is reflected in the employee's records.

9.
If the PL entitlement is zero (date tracked on the first day of the leave), approve the leave and make sure to have the approval of the local HR and the HRBP.
Correct Answer
A. True
Explanation
If the PL (Paid Leave) entitlement is zero on the first day of the leave, it is still possible to approve the leave. However, it is important to ensure that the approval is obtained from both the local HR and the HRBP (HR Business Partner). This suggests that even if an employee does not have any remaining paid leave entitlement, there may be circumstances where their leave can still be approved, but it requires the involvement and approval of the relevant HR personnel.

Step by Step LPS process
Correct Answer(s)
A. Check the entitlement balance
B. Seek the approval of the local HR and HRBP
C. Approve the request
D. Make the necessary deductions
E. Inform the member
F. Close WAT case
Explanation
The correct answer provides a step-by-step process for handling LPS (Leave of Absence, Personal Leave, and Sabbatical) requests. The process begins by checking the entitlement balance to ensure the employee has enough leave days available. Then, the approval of the local HR and HRBP is sought. Once approved, the request can be officially approved, and the necessary deductions from the entitlement balance can be made. The employee is then informed about the approval and the case can be closed. It is mentioned that clarification with the local HR is needed to determine whether the leave will be approved or not, but this step is not included in the correct answer.
