Leaves of Absence

When you’re facing the possible need to take a leave of absence from your work at dentsu, we want to make sure your experience is as smooth and stress free as possible.

As soon as you know you need to be absent from work for more than three days, call Lincoln Financial Group at 800-523-0428. When you make this call, a knowledgeable intake Specialist will walk you through the leave process and discuss your options. If you are a Regular employee, you will also be able to report short-term disability claims should your leave request be related to your own medical condition, as well as report a parental leave if you are having a child (through birth, adoption or foster placement). Review our Leave of Absence informational flyer, as well as our Parental and Caregiver leave FAQs for more information.
