Illness in connection with vacation

The employee may cancel the holiday in the event of illness.

The primary purpose of the holiday is to have a more extended period of continuous leave, relax from work and devote themselves to other things.

If the employee becomes ill, they can not spend the holiday as planned. Therefore, they have the right to cancel the vacation and use the days at a later time according to the Holiday Act.

The same applies if the children become ill during the holiday. Then it is possible to exchange vacation days for temporary parental leave.

The employer must be notified as soon as the employee wishes to stop using their vacation days
