Cocoon Leave: What to Expect and What HR Needs From You

If you received a Cocoon message or you’re starting a leave request, use this guide.

What Cocoon is

Cocoon is our leave administration partner that helps coordinate leave documentation and timelines.

What you should do

1. Respond to Cocoon prompts and upload requested forms.
2. Confirm with your manager your expected time away (do not share medical details).
3. Notify HR if your leave dates change.

What HR may ask you to confirm

• Leave type (PTO vs Medical Leave vs FMLA)
• First day absent and expected return date
• Whether you need intermittent leave

Tip: If multiple HR team members were copied on an email, only one case will be tracked—no action is required from you beyond responding to Cocoon and HR requests.
