| 5 | | leave under this Section and who has provided notification of |
| 6 | | the leave at least 14 calendar days prior to the requested |
| 7 | | leave date. A State employee who provides less than 14 |
| 8 | | calendar days' notice of the leave may be denied leave if the |

| 10 | | create a health or safety hazard in the workplace. If the leave |
| 11 | | is denied, written notification must be provided to the |
| 12 | | employee within 24 hours after the employee's request for |
