Sample of a Long Leave Application Letter #1

To:
Mr. Anthony Montana
Head Customer Relations
ABC Limited
123 Business Ave, Chicago

September 24, 2011

Dear Mr. Montana,

After your recommendation during our conversation last week, I am writing to you today to request a long leave from June 1 to June 30. I need the one month to recover from my Cholecystectomy (gall bladder removal).

My doctor has recommended that I have the surgery performed as soon as possible. I will be more than willing to provide all medical records and certificates upon my return.

I will be on bed rest after the surgery and will not be able to attend many phone calls. Hence, I recommend that Timothy Cruz be assigned my tasks until I return. He is familiar with my projects and should not have any problems covering on my behalf.

Thank you for your consideration.

Jacob Firth,
Customer Service Executive

Long Leave Application Letter Sample #2

To:
Riz Khan
Operations Manger

From:
David Lenon
Line Manager

Date: September 24, 2010

Subject: Long Leave

I would like to request a 3-week long leave, starting on March 20th. I will be returning to the factory on April 16 to pick up my duties. The reason for my extended leave is the expected delivery of my first child.

My wife does not have any family in the area and I will need to be at home to help her recover after birth. I will also be taking care of my child the first week so that my wife is not overburdened with a hectic workload.

I have several projects in the pipeline, and since I will be working on them from home, my work will not be affected. If someone needs to contact me from the office I will try to be available via phone or email.

Thank you for considering my request.

Regards,
(Signature)
