If an employee is entitled to leave, the record must include both:

•  leave taken (if any)
•  the balance of the employee's entitlement to that leave from time to time. If an employer and an employee have agreed to the employee taking a period of annual leave in advance of an accrued amount of leave, the employer must keep a copy of the agreement which:
•  states the amount of leave to be taken in advance and the date on which the leave is to commence
•  must be signed by the employer and the employee, and if the employee is under 18 years of age, by the employee's parent or guardian. If an employer and employee have agreed to cash out an accrued amount of leave, the employer must keep a copy of the agreement. The agreement must state:
•  the pay rate for the leave cashed out
•  when the payment was made.
