Medical Leave Policies

Medical leave policies are guidelines that allow employees to take time off from work for health-related reasons, such as illness, injury, or medical appointments. These policies often include provisions for paid or unpaid leave, job protection, and the use of sick leave or disability benefits. In many cases, employees may need to provide medical documentation to qualify. The specifics can vary by company, industry, and country, but the main goal is to support employees' health while ensuring they can return to their jobs without penalty.
