EY has a similar program and the VI team sent a note stating it is okay to take the leave with reduced pay with intention of returning back.

OP great question, I’m in a similar situation so would love to know as well if this violates our H1b...

I heard back and they basically said no impact to H1B or PR process as long as everything is documented (in case there are questions on it in the future).
