What is Voting Leave?
Time off from work that allows employees to vote in public elections. Most US states have laws requiring employers to provide voting leave, though the specifics around pay, duration, notice requirements, and qualifying elections vary widely by jurisdiction.

Voting Leave comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
