If I need to miss work because I have H1N1, will the call off
count as an occurrence of absenteeism?
Unplanned absence from work will count as an occurrence of
absenteeism in accordance with Policy HR #5 unless you qualify for job
protected time off under the Family Medical Leave Act and your
treating physician certifies your illness as a serious health
condition.FMLA packets can be retrieved directly from your department
manager or from the Human Resources Department.
I just found out that one of the patients I took care of has
H1N1. I didn’t wear a mask. What should I do?
If you were unmasked and had close personal contact (within 3 feet of
the patient for greater than 15 minutes) or were unmasked and
involved in respiratory care associated with increased aerosolization
(i.e. suctioning, intubation etc.) you should inform your department
manager and contact Employee Health (Monday – Friday, 8:00 am –
4:30 pm). Outside of Employee Health’s normal hours of operation,
please contact your personal physician.
