How long can I be away on LOA? A member can be away as long as they need as long as its over 5 days away unable to attend patrol.
Will my LOA be automatically approved?
Each LOA is reviewed and approved on a case by case basis, LOA's could be denied.
What happens if my LOA gets denied?
If staff feels your LOA isn't for a valid reason and or if you frequently submit an LOA it could be denied. Also if an incident occurred with you or another member and the LOA is submitted thereafter it also could be denied. We cant stop you from being away but we are able to still enforce the activity requirements which could result in a community dismissal.
What should I do after I complete my LOA form?
Following the chain of command, please notify your proper supervisor and or a Human Resources member so we know its submitted and we can process it.
Who has access or can see my LOA details?
Currently Staff and Human Resource members can view the LOA's for any department.
