The Sick Leave Letter For Work is a crucial document in the Maltese employment context, required whenever an employee needs to take time off work due to illness or medical conditions. Under Maltese law, employees must properly document their sick leave and provide appropriate medical certification. This letter serves as the formal communication channel between the employee and employer, typically submitted alongside a medical certificate from a registered healthcare provider. It should contain specific information about the leave period, expected return date, and any relevant medical recommendations while complying with both the Employment and Industrial Relations Act and data protection requirements. The document is particularly important for maintaining proper employment records and ensuring compliance with local labor regulations regarding sick leave entitlements and documentation.
