Summary
In addition, the mandatory presentation of a medical certificate of incapacity for work from the first day of illness is to be introduced as a legal rule - instead of on the fourth day as before. It is already possible that doctors backdate the onset of an incapacity for work – but “only exceptionally and only after careful examination and usually only up to three days”, as a guideline states. In companies, it should be possible to agree on different rules.
Furthermore, Chancellor wants to reduce sick leave Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) justified the plans with the fact that the sick leave should be reduced. It needs better state conditions than before.
