Your right to sick leave in Australia

Under the Fair Work Act, full-time employees are entitled to 10 days of paid personal/carer's leave per year, and part-time employees a pro-rata amount. Employers can ask for evidence (such as a medical certificate) for any day of leave — having one ready protects your pay.

Why a same-day online certificate matters

Trying to book a same-day GP appointment when you're unwell is often impossible — and going in person risks spreading whatever you have. Telehealth solves both problems: you rest at home, the doctor reviews your case, and your employer gets the proof they need.

What's on the certificate

Your full name, the dates you're unfit for work, the doctor's name and AHPRA registration number, and a digital signature. No diagnosis. No symptoms. Just the evidence your employer needs.

Frequently asked

Can I get a sick leave certificate for today?

Yes. Submit your request now and an AHPRA-registered doctor will review it within 60 minutes — usually within just a few minutes — and email your certificate.

Can I backdate a sick leave certificate?

Backdating of up to 1 day is available at the doctor's discretion if you forgot to get one the day you were unwell.

How many days can the certificate cover?

Single-day certificates cover 1 calendar day. Multi-day certificates cover up to 2 consecutive days. For longer absences we recommend an in-person GP consultation.

Do I have to tell my employer what's wrong?

No. Your certificate states only that you're unfit for work for the specified dates — your specific symptoms or diagnosis are never disclosed.
