Interesting thread here.
Accord my work rule:
My sick leave note is not request until last of 3 days. After 3 days then sick leave note is request. I must inform my employer before 8 am that I´m unfit to go work. On other side, employers don´t like to see their employee´s frequently sick leave then they have the right to demand sick note from them at their first day of sick leave or order Confidence Doctor to examine them either they are sick or not. Employee who take sick leave frequently receive warning letter from their employers... The employee has the right to defend against their warning then go to doctor for the proof that they are really sick...
We receive full paid from employer until 6 weeks sick leave... After 6 weeks sick leave, then public health insurance paid me 80%.......
Accord school rule:
We are obligate to inform school if my boys are unfit to go school... Demand sick note for one day is not necassary. More than one day then sick note request.
Any question?
