Requesting a Leave of Absence
If you need to request Family Medical Leave (FML), you must initiate your request through Workday. Visit the Workday website and access the Workday tip sheet, Self-Service: Request a Leave of Absence, for step-by-step instructions to request a leave of absence through Workday.
After you have made your leave request, you will receive a notification email from Workday to complete the appropriate leave request forms. You can download a Leave Request Form kit that matches your desired leave by clicking on one of the links below. Please note that your request is not complete until you provide the FMLA Administrator with the required information.
You have two options for submitting the required forms to the FMLA Administrator. You can:
- Fax your completed forms to 215-405-2929, or
- Scan and email the forms to the FMLA Administrator at fmla@hr.upenn.edu
