No, the employer has no right to refuse to grant such leave:
- Duration of the leave: Such leave is granted for the period specified in the employee's application, but not more than 90 calendar days.
- Confirmation: The employee must provide documents confirming that he/she has left Ukraine or has acquired the status of an internally displaced person.
In addition to the mandatory unpaid leave, an employee may request leave for a period exceeding the 90 days with the consent of the employer.
