Dear ________:

This letter will outline my formal request for maternity leave. As you are already aware, my due date is ________.

I am requesting maternity leave of the following time period: ________. I would like my leave to begin on ________ and end on ________.

I will also be submitting this request to the appropriate department in our company.

I plan to have all of my work properly assigned to co-workers or subordinates prior to my absence and I am open to any suggestions from the company on how to do so. I also request that no work-related calls, emails, or other obligations be forwarded my way during my leave.

I very much look forward to working with you to ensure a smooth transition for my leave and back to work.

Sincerely,
