Hi bibi2020
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.
