possible translation error in HR uiLabels

[Erwan de FERRIERES-3]

Hi all,

While looking at the uiLabels of the HR component, i may have found some
translation error, but want to be sure.
For the term "leave", we have 2 ways of understanding it, as some kind
of holiday, or as someone who is fired of his job.

In the french translations, it is understood as holiday, but for the
german and italian translations, it is translated as a dismissal.

So, just to be sure that everyone is speaking of the same thing, which
translation is the right one ? To my point of view, the holiday stuff is
the good one.

If so, the native speakers may submit some improvments.

Cheers,

In the US, leave is an absence from work, not a termination of employment.
