According to the EPFL rules and regulations relating to absences management, all absences linked to sickness or accident which exceed 3 days need to be justified by a medical certificate (Art. 21 of the Rules and Regulations concerning Working Time Management).
The absences management system automatically identifies absences exceeding 3 days in a row and when a certificate is required. Your medical certificate must be uploaded directly in your absences account and linked to the related absence. It will be then confirmed by your unit.
Our user’s guide informs you how to upload your certificate in the system.
