Does an employee have to provide a release to work after every illness?

In 9. Tardiness & Absenteeism
Tagged Absenteeism, Employee Relations Handbook, Physician's Statement, Tardiness

Generally, an employee is not required to provide a release to return to work after illnesses. Some examples of when a release should be required are:

  • If an employee has had a contagious illness.
  • If an employee has had a physical injury that might limit their ability to perform physical aspects of their job.
  • Prior to return from a Medical Leave of Absence. In these cases, the requirement to provide a release is stated on the leave form.
