If you are unable to work due to illness, it is crucial for Flink’s operational performance to be informed timely. Therefore you must notify:

For shifts starting before 11:00 AM, you must call before 10:00 PM the evening before your shift.
​
​For shifts starting at or after 11:00 AM, you must call no later than 9:00 AM on the day of your shift.
​
Failing to comply with the sick reporting protocol may lead to a warning and/or non-payment of salary.

Shift starts at 08:00 AM
→ Call the hub before 10:00 PM the evening before
​

Shift starts at 13:00 PM
→ Call the hub before 09:00 AM on the same day

Inform your colleagues

Let your colleagues know about your absence so they are aware your shift may need coverage.

Stay reachable

You must remain reachable between 9:00 AM and 2:00 PM for possible contact from:

• your Hub Manager
• Workforce Support
• the company doctor (De Nieuwe Arts)

Reporting sick for multiple days

If you remain sick and have another scheduled shift, you must report sick again for that shift.
Failing to comply with the sick reporting protocol may lead to a warning and/or non-payment of salary.

If you feel unwell while working, immediately inform your Hub Manager or Hub Leadership.

Together you will decide whether it is better for you to:

• continue working
• go home due to illness

During sick leave, the company doctor, De Nieuwe Arts, may contact you.

You must:

• respond to their communication
• answer their questions truthfully
• attend appointments if requested

If your illness lasts longer than two weeks, the company doctor may assess your situation and discuss the next steps.

They may also provide advice about reintegration and returning to work.

Employees must follow Flink’s sick leave reporting and control procedures.

Failure to follow these procedures may result in:

• an official warning
• possible impact on sick pay
• further disciplinary action if non-compliance continues

If you have questions about this process, please contact your Hub Manager.
