Here’s how our leave booking system works:

  1. When you’re planning on taking some time off, check The Studio Leave Google calendar (you should have had an email inviting you to it) to see if anyone else is heading away at the same time.
  2. Have a look at your pay slip (down the bottom) to see how much leave you have owed to you.
  3. If no one else wants the same time off, and you have enough leave owed to you (at the time you’re applying) and you’re giving us at least 30 days’ notice, then just fill in this form and you’re approved to go! No need to wait for managers. Bon voyage amigo!
    If someone else is going to be away at the same time, that’s not a deal killer, but we do need to be a little bit more careful (just to make sure we don’t end up negatively impacting the staff and clients who are left behind). We’ll do our best to get a reply back to you, one way or another, within five working days.

This is just for annual leave or leave without pay. Sick leave, bereavement leave, study leave etc is best handled by sending your supervisor an email.

Happy holiday planning!
