Fill in: 'We ___ a departing executive on gardening leave the day they resign, rather than letting them keep working alongside sensitive deals for months.'

Fill in: 'Letting a resigning employee keep full system access during gardening leave can ___ confidential client data exposed to a soon-to-be competitor.'
We say unrevoked access will 'leave' data exposed — the standard, natural collocation for the resulting risk. The other options aren't idiomatic here.

We 'specify a restriction' — the standard, simple collocation for stating limits during a leave period clearly. The other options are less idiomatic here.

Fill in: 'We ___ full pay and benefits throughout gardening leave, since it remains employment, not an early, unpaid suspension.'

5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ the leave period exactly to the contractual notice period, rather than picking an arbitrary length nobody actually agreed to.'
We 'align a period' — the standard, simple collocation for matching a leave duration to a contract term. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
