The Sick Leave Request Mail is a crucial document in Malaysian workplace communications, required whenever an employee needs to take leave due to illness or medical conditions. Under Malaysian law, particularly the Employment Act 1955, employees are entitled to paid sick leave, with the duration depending on their length of service and whether hospitalization is required. This document serves as the formal notification and record of such requests, typically requiring submission as soon as practicable when illness occurs. The email should include specific dates, medical justification, and may need to be accompanied by a medical certificate from a registered healthcare provider. It helps maintain clear communication between employees and management while ensuring compliance with both legal requirements and internal company policies regarding leave management.
