How to Report Sick Leave

Reporting procedures:

When you're unwell it is mandatory to notify the HM/ Hub Leadership by phone

  • If your shift starts before 11 AM the next day, you have to call the hub before 10 PM the previous night

  • If your shift starts at/after 11 AM, you have to call the hub before 9 AM the same day

Policy Compliance:

  • Employees are required to comply with the company’s sick leave reporting and control procedures. Non-compliance may result in disciplinary measures such as an official warning and may also affect payment.

  • Repeated non-compliance may potentially lead to further disciplinary action.

Inform Colleagues:

  • Let your direct colleagues know about your absence so they can cover your shift.

Availability for Questions:

  • Please be available between 9 AM and 2 PM for any questions from your HM or the Company Doctor.

Daily Reporting:

  • For each day you're sick with a planned shift, repeat the above steps. Failing to do so may result in no payout for those hours and categorization as a no-show.

Returning to Work:

  • You have a legal obligation to do your best to return to work promptly. The Company Doctor, 'De Nieuwe Arts', may reach out to you regarding your sick leave. You are required to respond, answer their questions truthfully, and potentially visit the 'Nieuwe Arts' when requested.

Longer Sick Leave:

  • If your sick leave extends beyond two weeks, 'De Nieuwe Arts', will discuss the reasons for your absence with you. You are required to provide the necessary medical information for an objective medical opinion.

Support and Reintegration:

  • De Nieuwe Arts will offer advice on your reintegration and collaborate with your manager. If needed, the company doctor will contact your manager before the 'Problem Analysis'.

Progress Evaluation:

  • 'De Nieuwe Arts' will evaluate the progress of your absence during consultation hours and provide feedback. You and your manager will receive feedback from 'De Nieuwe Arts' about the agreements made during the consultation.

Feeling Sick During a Shift:

  • If you feel unwell during your shift, immediately inform your Hub Manager / hub leadership. They can assist in case of an emergency or sickness. You can discuss with them whether it's better to go home or continue working.

Your health and adherence to this policy are crucial. Following these procedures ensures a smooth process during sick leave and supports your well-being.

If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to your hub manager.
