This is an optional clause for unpaid study leave. This clause is designed for inclusion in an employment contract. It provides information in relation to an employee’s entitlements to unpaid study leave.

For an employment agreement, see the separate precedent collection, including the “Basic employment agreement (short form)” and “Basic employment agreement (long form)”. Clauses should be adapted to ensure consistence of terminology, particularly in relation to defined terms.
