Sick leave

You are entitled to take sick leave days in accordance with statutory requirements with the understanding that sick days are solely for the purpose of recuperating from an illness or injury impacting you or a dependent.

Entitlement

You are entitled to ten (10) paid days of sick leave per calendar. VMware may request that you submit a doctor’s medical certificate to HR Source [VMware network access required] if your leave continues for three (3) days or more.

Carry Forward

Unused Sick Leave may not be carried forward to the next calendar year. 

Scheduling Sick Leave

You should request sick leave in advance, with your manager, whenever possible. If, for unavoidable reasons, a request could not be made in advance, you must submit an immediate subsequent report.

Use Workday [VMware network access required] to record your sick leave. Workday [VMware network access required] will display leave in an hourly basis. You may record your leave in blocks of 8 hours (1 day) or 4 hours (half day).
