the employee to provide advance notice of leave.

kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr
Thanksgiving.
kr
Shannon works five (5) days each week, for a schedules eight-hour day. Elizabeth works Monday,
kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr
Wednesday, and Friday only, and on those days is scheduled for eight-hour days. Therefore, Shannon
kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr

hour day, she has used 1/3 of a workweek (calculated as 33% of a week) as she is only scheduled
kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr kr
three days.
