Options for Absence Certification Requirements

Configure absence certification requirements as action items that workers must complete to continue receiving entitlements during an absence period. Requirement components include type, trigger, and actions.

Configuring absence certification is a two-step process in the Absences work area:

1. Configure the certification requirements using the Absence Certifications task.

2. Associate the certification requirements with an absence type on the Action Items tab of the Create Absence Type page. When workers schedule an absence, they're subject to the certification requirements.

Absence certifications are supported only for absence types with the illness or injury and maternity absence patterns.

Certification Components

When you create a certification requirement, you configure the following aspects:

• Requirement type

• Requirement trigger

• Requirement phases and actions

• Requirement status during absence recording

• Entitlement reevaluations
