Sick & AL accrual hours

Hi Jen22 

Thanks for your post. I found this information on the Fairwork website:

Annual leave accumulates when an employee is on:

• paid leave such as paid annual leave and paid sick and carer's leave
• community service leave including jury duty
• long service leave.

Sick and carer's leave accumulates when an employee is on:

• paid leave such as annual leave and sick and carer's leave
• community service leave including jury duty
• long service leave.

These links to the Fairwork website have more information, if you are unsure about your obligations I recommend speaking to Fairwork:
