Have Your Priceline Medical Certificate for Sick Leave
Done with Us!
What is there to do when you don’t show up for work due to illness?
Worry not! Here at Priceline Pharmacy West Brunswick, we’ve got the right people you need to be able to get your medical certificate for minor ailments. Read on to see how!
You will need an official statement stating your absence was legitimately due to sickness to make your sick/ carer leave valid. This Priceline medical certificate can be issued by either a pharmacist, for minor ailments, or a physician, for major ailments.
Available Service Time: Store hours
Price: $25.00 (Validity Period: 2 days)
We will only issue certificates in relation to the condition/s our pharmacist is qualified to asses.
According to the Fair Work of 2009, a pharmacist can issue certificates only for two valid reasons:
1. A minor illness/injury (based on the pharmacist’s level of expertise) for a Personal Leave.
2. A need to care for an ill family/household member for a Carer’s Leave.
A thorough interview will be conducted prior to the issuance of the certificate and will only be given when, by the pharmacist’s professional opinion, it is clear that you are unfit for work or taking care of someone ill at home.
