RE: Request for parental leave.

Dear Mr. Name of Employer:

I work in the company as a project manager. My supervisor is Name of Supervisor. This letter is a formal request for me to take parental leave for 30 days starting on the day the baby is born. My wife will deliver our new baby on or about DATE, and I would like to be by her side.

​We have no other help at this time because my wife’s parents are too old to travel here and help, and my mother will come only a week after the baby is born. I am requesting leave more than 30 days before the required date. 


I have referred to the employee’s handbook, and understand that I am allowed four weeks paternity leave with half pay. I have spoken to my immediate supervisor and plan to complete all of my current projects before I take leave. Name of Employee will oversee any new projects, and I will be at home and available to help any if required. 

I look forward to your favorable reply to my application. If you have any questions, I can be reached at Phone Number or Email Address. Thank you for your consideration of my request.

Sincerely,
Signature of Employee
Printed Name of Employee
