    Frequently Asked Questions

    How much detail do I need to give about my illness?

    You don't need to share medical details. A simple 'I'm not feeling well and won't be able to come in' is sufficient and professional.

    Should I email or call in sick?

    Follow your company's policy. Email is increasingly accepted and creates a paper trail. When in doubt, do both — a quick text or call plus an email.

    Is this tool free to use?

    Yes, completely free with no signup required.
