How many days will be covered by an online medical or carer certificate?
It depends on the online assessment by the doctor, but usually, 1-7 days are covered by an online medical or carer’s certificate.

Will my employer accept the medical certificate dated after I started sick leave? Is it legal?

taken leave due to medical reasons, providing the certificate states:

If a person becomes sick on annual leave, are they required to show their medical certificate to the employer?
Yes, if any individual gets sick or suffers injury during annual leave, they are usually required to show a medical certificate to their employer to convert the annual leave days.
Do I need to share my medical condition with the employer, or is a medical certificate enough for sick leave?
Most of the time, providing a medical certificate issued by an AHPRA-registered doctor is sufficient for taking sick leave. However, exceptions may arise due to job or legal requirements, safety concerns, or company policies.
