How do I sign off the contents of a return-to-work declaration?

Modified on Tue, 10 Dec at 2:53 PM

Return-to-Work (RtW) declarations are required for specific categories of absence that are fully approved and have a Return to Work date set. The absence categories requiring a RtW declaration are configured in your system and are normally for Sickness. Once an employee has submitted a declaration within Self-Service, you as their manager, will receive an email stating that a declaration has been submitted to you. You need to then sign-off the contents.

Important:

If you can’t find the Self-Service email, check your Junk Mail, Trash folder etc to ensure that it has not ended up in there before you contact Support.

Within the Declarations view, you can keep track of the following:

who has submitted a RtW declaration.
who's RtW declaration has been signed-off.
who still needs to create and submit a RtW declaration. Note: The employee must submit a declaration for this sickness before it can be signed-off.

To review and sign off a declaration

Sign in to Self-Service.
Navigate to the Managing Sickness page, by clicking the Sickness Approvals menu option under Management.
Go to the Declarations view by clicking the Declarations button. The list of declarations are displayed.
Filter the list by the desired employee, if necessary.
Open the desired declaration which has the status: Submitted. The employee's Return to Work Declaration form appears.
Review the declaration.
Click the Sign-Off button. The declaration now has the status: Signed Off.
