Illness during holidays. If an employee during a holiday period has an illness or accident beyond his control, he retains his entitlement to any missed holiday time, provided he is verifiably incapacitated within the meaning of the Sickness Benefits Act (Ziektewet) and the employee has complied with the rules applicable to him in the event of incapacity.
Illness during holidays. 3.3.1 In the event that an employee falls ill while on a domestic holiday or withing the EEA area, in Switzerland, the United States or Canada, and is ill to such an extent that he is unable to enjoy the holiday, he must notify his employer of such an event on the first day of illness, e.g. by telegram, e-mail or in another verifiable manner, unless force major circumstances prevent giving a notification, and if so, then as soon as that situation passes.
3.3.2 If the employee meets the notification requirement and the illness lasts longer than three days and he gives his employer notice, within that time period, on which doctor he’s seeing or intends to issue a medical certificate, he is entitled to a compensatory leave, for the same length of time as the illness provably lasted.
