America North (Canada) here. Labour laws relatively similar. Is it bad I've been conditioned that my immediate response is "bitch leave". I work in IT. I've been burnt out twice in my career second time actually getting a doctor's note to get removed off on call for an app. Never once did I think of leave. I didn't know that was a thing outside of the more ambiguous "stress leave" which is maybe what they're referring to?
Anyways. I'm jelly.
