What if it doesn't work

  • I need more detail on one of these laws: Reach out to your Tilt contact for more information.
  • I'd prefer to manage one of these leaves in-house: Some employers choose to handle these internally, especially for sensitive situations — contact your Tilt contact to discuss.
  • If none of these apply, contact your Leave Success Manager (employees) or Customer Success Manager (HR teams).
