What Is a Medical Certificate for a Work-from-Home Request?

Following an appropriate clinical assessment, a registered medical practitioner may provide medical documentation describing the individual's health condition or recommending suitable workplace considerations where medically appropriate.
The certificate does not approve or guarantee work-from-home arrangements. It provides medical information that your employer may consider when making workplace decisions.

The suitability of remote work depends on the employee's role, workplace policies, and the employer's decision.
