Time Off + Leaves of Absence
Time Off
Leave of Absence
We recognize that vacation and holidays are not the only time Upstarters may need to be away from the office – that is why we have a wide range of supportive leave options available when you need an extended period of time off.
If you need time away for medical, pregnancy, bonding, family care, or other qualifying reasons, you’ll request your leave through our leave of absence vendor, Reliance Matrix.
