The below sample rule can be used. The rule check if Casual Leave or Sick Leave exists the previous day or not next day.

Please note :

b. In both the IF sections, only 2 Time types(Casual Leave, Sick Leave) are checked. If you need to check for other time types as well , then you need to include multiple ‘Get Absence In Days For Period()’ statements in both the IF sections along with the anem of the time Types.
