You must request a leave of absence with the Centralized Leave Team (CLT), ideally 30 days prior to your anticipated leave start date. Review the information on this page to learn how to request a leave of absence.
Talk to your manager about your leave of absence as soon as you know you will be requesting a leave.
There are two ways to request a leave of absence:
- The quickest and easiest way to request a leave is to submit a request via myACI > My HR > Leave of Absence.
- If you are unable to submit your leave request via myACI, call the Associate Experience Center at 888-255-2269 option 6.
IMPORTANT: You are also responsible for following normal absence reporting policies for your location.
