Compassionate Leave Policy

Is that time taken by a resident due to a death occurring in the immediate family. For the purpose of this policy, the immediate family shall mean the resident’s spouse (including common-law of the opposite or same sex), parent, step-parent, mother-in-law, father-in-law, grandparent, grandchild, brother, brother-in-law, sister, sister-in-law, son, son-in-law, daughter, daughter-in-law, or step-child.

The Postgraduate Director (or Deputy Postgraduate Director in the Postgraduate Director’s absence) will determine the appropriate duration of resident compassionate leave after discussion with the resident and in consultation/agreement with the residents’ preceptor in the particular clinical rotation.

Typical compassionate leave granted is 3 to 7 working days. Residents will be required to utilize accrued vacation/ educational leave if further time is needed (if there is no accrued vacation/ educational leave left, the resident will be required to take leave without pay).
