[QUOTE="AndBreathe, post: 1060853, member: 88961"] My understanding is your employer must allow you to take time off for medical issues, but they are not required to pay you for the time you are away. If you work for a larger company or organisation, you should be able to source their official policy on absence, which should cover these circumstances. It could be previous managers have simply not applied the policy, for either goodwill or they viewed it cost more to do the admin to trim your pay than just pay it, or it could be your current manager is mistaken in his/her approach. I'd advise you seek out the official policy and read it. That will tell you all you need to know. Most places will have the policy on an intranet site, so that it is easily accessible. Alternatively, if it's a smaller organisation, it may be in a folder somewhere. But, these policies (there will be plenty of them) are the company's rule book/guidelines for whatever each policy covers. [/QUOTE]
