What happens if I get sick during my vacation in Sweden?
If you fall ill during your leave you can request that the sick days are not counted as leave days. You must make the request without delay, ideally on the first day of illness. The days can then be taken as leave later. Proof of illness may be required under sick pay rules and agreements.
