Sick Leave: Must notify supervisor no less than __ hours of scheduled work time.

• A. 0
• B. 1
• C. 2
• D. 4

Answer: (B)

Timely notification of sick leave is about giving the supervisor enough lead time to rearrange duties and keep operations running smoothly. The minimum notice is one hour before your scheduled shift. This amount of time allows a supervisor to arrange coverage, inform the team, and update records, while still accommodating unexpected illnesses.

Zero hours would leave the team without any warning and disrupt coverage, while requiring more than the minimum (like four hours) can be impractical for sudden illness or very short shifts. Two hours is helpful, but the policy sets one hour as the standard minimum.
