About Leave Reason Packager
Pick a category and intensity
The tool starts from four built-in categories: health, family, emergency, and mental health. Each category has mild, medium, and high intensity pools, then tone and risk level shape the final package.
FAQ
Common questions and answers about this topic.
How do I pick the right wording for my leave request?
Start from the scenario - health, family, emergency or a rest day - then pick one of three intensities. The packager turns that into wording using the tone you choose (polite, plain or firm) and how much scrutiny you expect. Pick the scenario that matches your real situation, not the one that sounds most dramatic.
What is the difference between personal, sick and annual leave in Taiwan?
Under the leave rules in Taiwan they are paid very differently. Personal leave is for matters you must handle yourself, capped at 14 days a year and unpaid. Ordinary sick leave without hospitalisation is capped at 30 days a year and paid at half salary. Annual leave is granted by length of service and paid in full. The same day off can cost very different amounts depending on which one you use. Day counts and how to apply still follow the rules of your employer.
How many leave reasons does this tool cover?
26 reasons in total, spread across four scenarios - health, family, emergency and a rest day - with three intensity levels in each. They are starting points for wording, not a list to pick from at random. Each one still needs to match something that is actually true for you.
What are the weak-point note and fallback reply?
Besides the formal and spoken versions, the packager shows where your wording is likely to invite follow-up questions, a reply you can use if that happens, and a handover line so your work does not stall while you are away. The point is to say less that is vague, not to say more that is untrue.
Can I use this to invent an excuse that is not true?
That is not what this is for. The tool helps you put a real need into words - clearly enough that you are not asked the same question five times. It gives you phrasing, not a cover story. Leave still has to be requested under the rules of your employer and the labour regulations, and giving a false reason can breach your work rules. The tool does not help with that.
Who is this tool for, and what does it not cover?
It is for the moment you already know you need the day off and are stuck on how to say it. It covers wording for four everyday scenarios. It does not calculate your leave balance, file anything for you, or tell you which leave type your employer will approve - check your own rules for that. For long-term illness, family care or anything with legal weight, talk to HR or a professional rather than a phrasing tool.
