Re: medical leave

1. This question has been posted under the category of healthcare law. In fact, it belongs to general law related to service contract.

2. If the employer has contracted with the employee to pay hospitalization charges, the same will have to be paid in terms of the contract.

3. If the employee was on paid leave during the period of hospitalization, salary for the period of leave will have to be paid in terms of the contract.
