Taking personal leave. Personal Leave can be taken in part days. You are not required to provide a medical certificate for absences. You need to give us as much notice of your absence as possible. At a minimum, no later than the normal starting time on the first day of leave (or in exceptional circumstances, as soon as possible). You should notify your Manager of the nature of the absence and how long you expect to be away. If you need to extend your absence you must let us know prior to the commencement of the extension period. Personal Leave for planned appointments and health and wellbeing activities must be approved in advance by your Manager. You can have your Annual or Long Service Leave credited if you are unwell or injured for a continuous period of at least 1 working week and you provide a medical certificate for that period. In this instance, your Personal Leave will be debited accordingly. We may require you to attend a doctor nominated by the City of Newcastle at our cost. Where trust is questioned You may need to provide evidence if it appears that there has been a misuse of Personal Leave. Where we consider this necessary, we will meet with you and your Union to discuss your use of Personal Leave and provide you with an opportunity to respond. The type of occurrences that may lead to us meeting with you would be: Where you have on more than 2 occasions failed to notify us within a reasonable timeframe of your need to take Personal Leave; or Where counselling or a warning about your behaviour has occurred relating to your use of Personal Leave and you continue to engage in this conduct; or For any reason where it appears that there may be a pattern of behaviour. Following a discussion and where deemed necessary by us, you will be required to produce a medical certificate or statutory declaration for any further absence. Failure to provide a medical certificate, statutory declaration, or other form of reasonable evidence to our satisfaction, may result in non-payment of leave. In such cases the time away from work will be regarded as an unauthorised absence.
