Resident doctors may request up to two days each academic year to attend to personal matters. The leave can be either scheduled ahead or used in urgent situations. In non-emergent situations, the leave is subject to approval by the Program Director. If the requested day is not feasible, the Program Director and resident will work together to find another day that is suitable.
This is a standard PGME leave request form. Please speak with your Program Administrator to ensure you have the correct form, as each program may have different or additional forms.
Article 13.8
Upon request a resident may be granted leave with pay for up to two (2) days in any academic year. This leave is intended for situations that need to be attended to but may or may not normally be scheduled in advance. In emergent situations, the Resident will inform their supervisor as soon as possible regarding the need to take such a leave. In non-emergent situations, the Resident shall consult in advance with their Program Director. Requests may be denied for operational reasons.
