Answers regarding reporting illness
During the meeting, questions arose about reporting illness, so we asked Maria Engman , Deputy Unit Manager at HR, to clarify what you should do as an employee or a scholarship holder at EECS:
If you become ill, report this to your workplace on the same day. The report should be made to your immediate supervisor. If your duration of illness is less than seven days, you report your absence in the self-reporting system (HR+) when you are back at work.
For longer sickness absence which requires a medical certificate, you should report this in the self-reporting system (HR+) as soon as possible. You should state the same absence period as the medical certificate. You need to provide a copy of a medical certificate which you send to your division HR contact person or to hr-support@eecs.kth.se alternatively you can hand in or send the certificate by mail to HR EECS, Malvinas väg 10.
To see which HR contact person your division has, you will find that information available on the EECS intranet Contacts EECS .
A scholarship holder is not employed at KTH and will not receive sick benefits from KTH. See more information Scholarship-Funded Postdoctor , Questions and answers .
