The Leave and Job Flexibilities Module includes questions about workers' access to and use of paid and unpaid leave, job flexibility, and their work schedules. Information collected in the supplement will be published as a public use data set to facilitate research on numerous topics, such as: the characteristics of people with paid and unpaid leave; occupations with the greatest and least access to paid leave; reasons workers are able to take leave from their jobs; how many workers have access to job flexibilities such as the ability to work from home or adjust their start and stop times; and the relationship between workers' time use and their access to job flexibilities. Sponsored by the Department of Labor's Women's Bureau, the supplement is asked of eligible respondents immediately upon their completion of the American Time Use Survey (ATUS). The Leave and Job Flexibilities Module supports the mission of the Bureau of Labor Statistics by providing relevant information on economic and social issues and providing a richer description of work. The module surveys eligible wage and salary workers aged 15 and up from a nationally representative sample of households each month.

The proposed 2024 Leave and Job Flexibilities Module has many questions that are the same or similar to questions appearing in 2017-18 module. Unlike the 2017-18 Leave Module, two questions were removed from the section on job flexibilities and work schedules in order to add four new questions that would be of more analytical value. These questions were added to provide additional information about the stability (or instability) of workersâ schedules and the ability of workers to take time off with little notice if needed. The 2017-18 Leave Module took less time (4.5 minutes) than estimated time to complete and thus there was room to add additional questions in 2024. For this reason, and because some questions were dropped to make new room for the new questions, there is no change in the estimated time to complete the 2024 module (5 minutes).
