Absence Management
Brookhaven Science Associates recognizes that you may need time off from work due to your own or a family member's illness or injury, birth or adoption of a child, or bonding with a child. The information on this site will help you to understand the benefits you may be eligible to receive and the process to obtain them.
NOTE: You are strongly encouraged to review the Guide to Absence Management (PDF) before contacting the Benefits Office with questions related to planned absences. The Guide covers common scenarios that will help you understand which options may apply to you.
