I would advise you to contact your supervisor first they may have an unofficial policy in these type of cases, so that you may be allowed to work additional hours in order not exceeds you leave balances and be on leave without pay. Your supervisor may require permission from their supervisor. As a general rule Bosses do not like it when subordinates are on leave without pay status so they may work with you by increasing your work hours so that you don’t fall into that category.
