How does a temporary leave of absence for service in an elective office or for legislative service impact an employee's probationary period, trial service period, or transition review period?

When an employee is granted a temporary leave of absence for service in an elective office or for legislative service during a probationary period, trial service period, or transition review period, the employer must suspend the employee's probationary period, trial service period, or transition review period and allow the employee to resume when they return from their leave of absence.
