Frequently asked questions

Questions about being ill

What are the steps of the absence protocol?

From the moment you report sick, you follow the six steps above. If all the steps are followed, very little can go wrong. Is something still unclear? You can always reach us.

What are my rights and duties when I am off sick?

You have the right to continued payment of your salary and to good support. You must cooperate with your reintegration and stay reachable. Your employer must offer you a suitable reintegration plan.

How is a reintegration plan made?

Together with you, your employer and the company doctor we look at what you can do. Based on that we draw up an action plan (plan van aanpak), for example with adjusted work or fewer hours.

Can I do other or adjusted work?

Yes. Think of fewer hours, adjusted tasks or temporary other work inside or outside your company. We help you find what suits you.
