Como dizer "Solicitar/requerer/pleitear licença médica" em inglês

Márcio,

Sugestão:

Apply for sick leave

The employee may apply for sick leave with pay against accumulated credits during periods of absence from duty due to illness or injury.[www.cbc.radio-canada.ca]

Boa sorte!

Complementando, veja outras colocações do Oxford com "leave" que são obviamente aplicáveis à "sick leave" (e maternity leave, etc.):

VERB + LEAVE be entitled to, get, have How much annual leave do you get? I've still got some leave left this year. | go on, spend, take, use (up) She spent most of her leave with her family. I've still got some leave to use up. | save I'm saving all my leave to have a long holiday later in the year. | cancel When the war broke out all leave was cancelled. | give sb, grant sb | be due for, be owed | apply for

Creio que a maioria também funcione com "holidays" and "vacation", o que você acha?

sandrom, thank you for the info.

donay, thank you!

Flavia, thank you for providing yet more info on the subject.

Hi Marcio,

I´ve heard lots of ways to say it:

require medical leave

require for sick-leave

plead to be on sick-leave

ask for a medical leave

I hope it helps
