Sick Time

At VMware we encourage a healthy work environment. You are entitled to take Sick Leave in accordance with statutory requirements with the understanding that sick days are solely for recuperating from an illness or injury.

Entitlement

VMware provides paid Sick Leave in accordance to the law for any illness supported by a medical certificate.

For prolonged illness you may be eligible for disability payments from the Disability Insurance Plan (link) subject to the terms and conditions of the policy.

Payment

• The Company will pay the Employee their 100% base salary for the duration of the temporary disability leave that is supported by the formal doctor’s certification.
• Failure to timely provide documentary evidence of temporary disability (illness, accident, etc.), including submission of duly formalized medical certificate may result in the Employee no being paid sick leave.

Scheduling Sick Leave

• You should notify your manager as soon as possible that you will not be coming to work due to illness or injury. When absent due to illness, you must provide your manager and HR Source with a medical certificate within two (3) working days.
• Make sure you record your sick time in  Workday [VMware network access required].
