    Dear Yvonne
    Kindly accept our apologies for not responding to your enquiry earlier.
    Sick leave works in a three (3) year cycle. In terms of Section 23 of the Basic labour Relations an employee will qualify for one day sick leave for every 26 days worked during the first six (6) months of employment.
    Please refer to Section 23 of the BCEA with regards to proof of incapacity.
    Surely the reasons as indicated by you i.e. to take leave when an employee feels tired is totally unacceptable and must be dealt with in terms of your poor performance policy.

    Thanks for that labour. Great to have you here.

    So basically, in terms of the information requirements for the medical certificate itself it needs only be signed by the person specified in section 23 (2).
    23. (2) The medical certificate must be issued and signed by a medical practitioner or any other person who is certified to diagnose and treat patients and who is registered with a professional council established by an Act of Parliament.
    Not much in terms of regulated requirements for the detail there by the looks of it.
