Hi All,

could anyone please let me know, if absence from work without pay is allowed? and how many days one can take as unpaid paternity leave?

will appreciate your support on this.

Pg 102
6.18 You must not continue to sponsor a migrant who is absent from work without pay for
4 weeks or more in total
, other than for the reasons listed above. You must report this
using your SMS account. This applies whether the migrant is absent from work over a
single period or more than one period during any calendar year (1 January to 31
December). The 4 weeks is calculated according to the migrant’s normal working
pattern.
An example of this is if the migrant works 3 days per week (3 days x 4 weeks) it would
be 12 working days.

In other words your continuous period is not broken for ILR if you take up to 4 weeks(20 working days if you work 5 days a week) of unpaid leave. However you would need to submit a letter to UKVI detailing you unpaid leave from your employer.
