Annual Leave Requests
We encourage all staff to take their well-deserved annual leave and maintain a healthy work-life balance.
Process Steps
- Notice Period: A minimum of 14 days’ notice is required for all annual leave requests.
- Manager Approval: Staff must notify their client’s Line Manager of intended leave dates.
- Formal Submission: Once approved, staff must submit a formal request through the TMA Helpdesk Support system with uploaded client approval.
Sick Leave
Staff must inform their line managers directly before their shift starts each time they are sick or unable to attend work.
Staff members must also log a notification via the TMA Helpdesk so the Talent Operations team can track and log the request.
Important Notice
If TMA is not made aware, the Talent Operations team is required to follow the AWOL process, which involves attempting to reach the staff member and their next of kin.
