Document background
The Letter of Intent for Leave of Absence is a crucial document in UAE employment relations, designed to formalize an employee's request for extended time away from their regular duties. This document is typically used when an employee needs to take leave beyond standard annual leave allowances, such as for medical treatment, educational pursuits, or personal circumstances. The letter serves as an initial step in the leave approval process, providing essential information about the proposed absence while ensuring compliance with UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 33 of 2021 and other relevant employment regulations. It outlines key details including the duration of leave, reason for the request, work handover arrangements, and contact information during the absence period. This document is particularly important in the UAE context, where employment relationships are strictly regulated and proper documentation is essential for both legal compliance and administrative purposes.
