Return from Absence Clause Samples
The 'Return from Absence' clause outlines the procedures and requirements for an employee to resume work after a period of authorized leave or absence. Typically, this clause specifies any notice the employee must provide before returning, documentation that may be required (such as a medical certificate after sick leave), and any conditions for reinstatement to their previous position or duties. Its core function is to ensure a smooth and predictable transition back to work, minimizing disruption for both the employee and employer while clarifying expectations on both sides.

Nurses returning to duty following a sick leave must advise both the Unit Manager and the Unit not less than eight (8) hours in advance of their scheduled shift that they intend to return.
