Common use of Sick Leave Reporting and Verification Clause in Contracts

Sick Leave Reporting and Verification. Employees must notify their supervisor (or designee) as soon as reasonably possible when they will be absent due to illness or injury. If an employee is in a position where a relief replacement is necessary if they are absent, he or she will notify their supervisor at least two (2) hours prior to their scheduled time to report to work, whenever possible. The University may require a written medical verification for absences of three (3) or more consecutive days in accordance with RCW 49.46.210 (1)(b) and (c), or where there is reason to suspect sick leave abuse. Pursuant to RCW 49.46.210 and WAC 000-000-000, requirements for verification may not result in an unreasonable burden or expense on the employee and may not exceed privacy or verification requirements otherwise established by law.
