My accrued leave is "comprehensive". Paid time off and sick leave combined. My wife accrues paid time off separately from sick leave. In her case, the right thing to do is to shift the time recording from "vacation" to "sick" if that is the correct situation. Of course, that shift should come with a bona fide note from the doctor. Paid time off is subject to being paid out on termination. Sick leave simply evaporates.

That was the way it was with my last employer. And I barely got to use any time that wasn't sick leave (too much work to be done).

If you get sick on the weekend or a holiday, can you claim sick time?
