Sick notes are often requested by employers to verify a short-term absence from work due to illness. We are interested in your views about the use of sick notes.

Did you know:
  • Over 600,000 sick notes are requested each year in Manitoba?
  • A third of the time, patients have no symptoms left to verify when they see a doctor for a sick note.
  • If sick notes were eliminated, it would free up over 300,000 visits for patients with real medical concerns. That's the same as adding over 50 doctors!
  • Manitoba currently has the fewest family doctors per capita in the country.
