SICKNESS ABSENCE Sample Clauses

The SICKNESS ABSENCE clause sets out the rules and procedures for handling employee absences due to illness. It typically outlines the requirements for notifying the employer of sickness, the need for medical certification after a certain period, and any entitlements to sick pay during the absence. This clause ensures that both the employer and employee understand their rights and obligations when sickness prevents attendance at work, thereby promoting transparency and minimizing disputes related to absence management.
