What is the ruling on taking an emergency leave in Ramadan for the purpose of 'Umrah?

Question:
He says: Your Eminence the Shaykh, in our employment contract, it is stipulated that each worker is entitled to ten days of emergency leave. Is it permissible to take this in Ramadan for the purpose of 'Umrah?

Answer:

So if they want to grant a dispensation (rukhsah) absolutely for these needs, these are among the needs. As for necessity (darurah), no, it is not called a necessity. But if they allow him to take 'Umrah, or grant him a dispensation to sit with his family, or for other needs, there is nothing wrong with that. As for necessity, it is not a necessity. It would be if he were sick and forced to leave work, or a necessity if one of the sick people needs to go to the hospital or something similar. The point is that he explains to them, he explains to the authority that he wants the 'Umrah,
