To use this quota you need to hand in a justification to HR Global Contact Center and the absence will be updated in the system as family assistance paid. When you exceed the 10 days per year, you are still entitled to the justified absence, but it will not be paid by the company.
The absences for family assistance are justified, but not paid by SBS are as follows, the ones covered by SS:
- 30 days per year for assistance to child under 12 years old;

These days are paid by Social Security and the employee should request it to SS.
