Organisations offer different kinds of leaves, with Paid Leaves being the most common leave type. Other common types of leave are Vacation Leaves, General Sick Leaves, and Holiday Leaves. Although employers may not be required to provide such fringe benefits, they may be legally obligated to comply with any policies or practices that grant leave benefits, either paid or unpaid, to employees.
