How is Sick Leave regulated in Albania?

Sick leave entitlement, medical certificate requirement and how absences are recorded in Albania.

Employees in Albania are entitled to sick leave when they are unable to work through illness or injury.

Your entitlement

Sick leave is paid by your employer.

In the platform

  • Sick leave in Albania is configured with no fixed annual balance. There is no day-count cap to track and no balance to run down — each absence is recorded individually.

  • Sick leave is recorded in half-day units, so a partial day of absence can be logged accurately.

What you need to provide

  • A medical certificate is required for every sick leave request. Upload it with your request.

  • You can submit sick leave retrospectively, so an unplanned absence can be logged after the fact. The certificate is what makes it payable.
