Extraordinary Sick Leave Clause Samples
The Extraordinary Sick Leave clause provides employees with additional paid or unpaid leave beyond standard sick leave entitlements in cases of severe or exceptional illness. This clause typically applies when an employee's medical condition is so serious that it exceeds the duration or scope of regular sick leave, such as hospitalization or long-term recovery from major surgery. Its core function is to offer job protection and financial support during extended periods of illness, addressing situations where ordinary sick leave provisions are insufficient.
