Probation should not affect your sick leave entitlement
Sick leave entitlement is not tied to the probation period. You are entitled to paid sick leave as long as you are covered by the Employment Act and have served your employer for at least 3 months.
Employers are also encouraged to be flexible and grant paid sick leave to employees with a service period of less than 3 months.
