Leaves

 

SICKNESS

In case of absence for sickness, you should immediately inform your supervisor and the IT secretariat which is responsible for recording your absence in EDH.

Please note that an absence entered as "annual/saved leave" in EDH cannot be changed into "sick leave" unless you provide a medical certificate.

A scan/photograph of the certificate must be handed to the secretariat within 30 days of the absence. Please make sure that the certificates you provide are properly filled in and contain the necessary information (see the links to the templates available in English and French).

Please read the full procedure available here

If you are entitled to Home Leave, the information should appear on the Leave request form in EDH.
