Question: After medical treatment, I continued to work for two years. Now I feel unwell. Can I ask for a long-term sick leave? How long is the sick leave
According to the Notice on Strengthening the Management of Enterprise Employees' Sick Leave to Protect Their Lives during Sick Leave, the continuous leave of employees due to illness or non work related injuries within six months is called "short-term sick leave", and the leave of more than six months is called "long-term sick leave". The number of leave days of employees due to illness or non work related injury shall be calculated according to the actual number of leave days, and the rest days and holidays included in the continuous leave days shall be eliminated. Employees who have been confirmed by the People's Hospital as requiring long-term sick leave and cannot work normally can apply for long-term sick leave, such as cancer patients, uremia patients, serious cardiovascular patients, serious occupational diseases, serious radiation patients, mental patients, etc. In case of sick leave on business, full salary shall be paid; in case of sick leave for more than 6 months, sick leave salary shall be paid.
