Children’s sickness/hospitalisation Clause Samples
Children’s sickness/hospitalisation. Employees who have been employed in the enterprise for nine consecutive months are granted time off when they are admitted to hospital together with a child under the age of 14. This also applies in connection with full or partial hospitalisation at home. Only one parent who has custody of the child is entitled to such time off, and the right to time off only covers a total period of one week per child within a twelve-month period. On request, the employee must provide documentation of the hospitalisation. The wages payable during absence are the same as the wages payable during absence due to sickness; see clause 15. If the employee is eligible for unemployment benefits, the enterprise will assume that right.
