This question is about stress leave at work.

What are good reasons for stress leave?

By Zippia Team - Mar. 27, 2023

Although there is no "good" reason for stress leave, appropriate reasons include:

Mental health issues (as approved by a mental health professional)
Family emergencies
Overwork and burnout
Workplace conflict

Appropriate reasons for stress leave have to either be covered by the FMLA or your company's policies. That is why it is important to review both before you request stress leave.
