eLAS Requestor/Approver Training
One of the benefits of the Electronic Leave Accrual System (eLAS) is the ability for monthly paid employees (Requestor) to request and submit time off requests at their own convenience. Since the eLAS system is a web based application, employees may access it from any internet connection. Once submitted, a time off request will electronically be sent to designated individuals (Approver) for approval.

PLEASE NOTE: There is a 6 month entry limit for eLAS time off requests.
