Asking Your Manager for Time Off

Le scénario

You want to take a week off next month for a family event. Ask your manager — but it's a fairly busy period, so you need to show you've thought about coverage and timing.

Expressions cibles

• "Do you have a minute to discuss something?"
• "I was wondering if I could take..."
• "I've checked the calendar and..."
• "I've arranged for [colleague] to cover..."
• "I'd make sure everything is handed over before..."
• "Would that work on your end?"
• "I appreciate your flexibility"
