Writing an email to follow up on a leave request that is still pending approval should be clear and polite. Start by reminding the recipient briefly of your original leave request, including the dates you plan to be away. Make sure to express understanding of their busy schedule but emphasize the importance of receiving a timely response to your leave plans. Avoid using complex words or phrases and ensure all the necessary information is present, such as your contact information and any documents attached.
