I dismissed all of this as signs of stress or exhaustion from work but since last night I have had a serious fever and so I finally consulted our family physician, Mr. or Mrs. or Ms. [mention the name] and after examining me, he said that it is a viral fever, [mention the name] and I am advised to take bed rest for a few days.

You can check my leave record, sir or madam, I have hardly taken leaves. I have been worked as a sincere, dedicated individual, working hard to make a fair contribution to the success and development of the organization always. But this time, I really need it.

I have prepared and submitted all the reports of the current project [mention the name] to Mr. or Ms. [mention the name], and there won’t be any problem due to my absence I believe.

I will be joining the team as soon as I feel a little better. Currently, I am on medications. Still, if you ever feel that you need me for anything, then [mention the contact number] is my personal number or you can reach me at my personal email ID [mention it] as well. 

I hope that you would understand. Thank you for your cooperation.

Dear sir or ma’am,

This letter is written by me, [mention your name], the [mention your designation], working in [mention the name of your department] in [mention the name of the company or organization]. I request you to kindly allow me sick leave.

I apologize, but it will not be possible for me to come to work for [mention the number of days] as my father is having a [mention the name of the disease] operation on [mention the date] and I have to be there beside him these few days.

In spite of the fact that he was sick, I couldn’t be there for him all this while as I was too busy with my professional life, working dedicatedly, and devoting all my time to the advancement of the organization ever since I started working here, i.e., from the year [mention it]. I have in fact been ignoring all of my personal commitments but this time, I can’t. He needs me, and I have to be there.

Subject– Asking for sick leave

Dear sir or ma’am,

I am [mention your full name], the [mention your post] from your [mention the name of the department], working in [mention the name of the firm or organization] for [mention the time period]. I am framing this email to request you grant me sick leave.

I didn’t know that I was suffering from a sinus infection. I was always sensitive to cold, but then I have always avoided it. Whenever I used to catch a cold, it was accompanied by a serious headache and facial pain, especially the eye sockets ached, but I always dismissed it, thinking that’s what happens when you catch a cold. Besides, it was bearable, and I came to the office, working in that condition, taking medicines whenever I faced a bit too much.

However, the last few days, I experienced some other major symptoms as well, and after I consulted my doctor, he said that it is due to sinus and I needed to take rest for a few days without any stress, forgetting all the work pressure. 

I have been sincerely working at this organization right from the very beginning, and I have always made sure that I do all my duties with perfection and that I have successfully finished them on time, thus always adding value to the name of the organization. I would request you to kindly excuse me this time.

I have taken care of all the responsibilities that I had till now, and I will mail you the reports today. Additionally, I would mail my doctor’s prescription as well, submitting the medical records and the other documents to the office once I rejoin.

I believe I will be able to come to the office from [mention the date].

Thank you for understanding.

Please feel free to contact me at [mention the number], if you need me.

Regards,

Subject– Requesting to grant a sick leave

Dear sir or ma’am,

This is [mention your name], working at [mention the name of the department] as [mention your role], in [mention the name of your organization or corporation] ever since the past [mention the number of years]. I am composing this email to request you to grant me sick leave for [mention the number of days].

Right from the very first day since I joined this notable organization, my only aim is to make sure that I am able to make a significant contribution to the name and fame of this corporation, and for this, I have always tried hard.

I am proud to say that, working dedicatedly, I have successfully managed all my tasks and have landed some major projects for the ultimate advancement of the entity. I have hardly taken any leaves until and unless it’s absolutely necessary, and this is one of those times that I believe that I need to avail my sick leave.

First of all, I would like to tell you that I belong to [mention the name of your town] and it’s because of the job that I have been living at [mention this city where you are living] all alone. I received a call last night when my mother mentioned that my elder sister, with whom I am very close, has suffered a mild heart attack.

Due to my work commitments, I scarcely visited them all these years, but now I need to be there for my sister. I am really sorry that I can’t let you know any sooner, but today I am taking a flight to [mention the name of your town] and will only be back after [mention the number of days].

I have mailed all the necessary reports that I was supposed to submit today and I will make sure that you have all the medical reports as well, as soon as I am back from there. In my absence, my senior, [mention the name], will be looking after things. If you need me during this time, please give me a call at [mention your personal contact number]. 

I will be rejoining the office from [mention the date]. I hope that you understand and will excuse me.

Thank you so much.

Dear [name of the recipient]

I want to let you know that, owing to illness, I will not be at work today. Since last night, I have had a high temperature, a cough, and the flu. I’ll visit the doctor today to get medication. I am sending you this email to let you know that I am currently ill and unable to report to work till I am well. Please accept my application for the official file; upon my return, I will also complete the office’s sick leave form.

The entire recuperation could take two or (Mention the numbers) days, but if that is not the case, I will let you know, or my wife will send you an email to let you know. Please delegate my tasks to someone in the office while I’m away. My medical exam revealed that I have kidney and bladder stones after experiencing excruciating discomfort. The doctor advised that I should get this surgery as soon as possible to prevent any bladder damage.

I must take (Mention the numbers) days off from (day) through (day) for this procedure, and I will return to work on (day). Upon my return, I shall present my medical records as proof of this vacation. Please take this as informed, and as this is a natural illness, I’ll be happy if the firm pays me for the time off. You will have my gratitude.

I’ve been given medication, and the doctor told me to spend at least seven days in bed. Please, Sir, give me permission to take a seven-day sick vacation to rest and recuperate completely. A junior shift leader, Charlie, will be in charge while I’m gone. He will be in charge of all business affairs and correspondence.

Dear [name of the recipient]

My upper knee has been in discomfort for the past (numbers) days. I visited the hospital today for a checkup. Before a follow-up exam, the doctor strongly advised that I rest in bed for at least two weeks. Additionally, the doctor advised taking medication for (numbers) weeks, noting that the outcome would depend on bed rest. Please give me a two-week leave of absence to quickly and effectively treat my knee’s inside side soreness. You will have my gratitude.

I’d like to formally introduce myself as (Your Name), an auditor for your organization. I wrote you this letter in anguish to let you know that my right kidney was giving me a lot of discomforts. The doctor discovered some stones that required immediate removal after the examination. The doctor has suggested that I have surgery the following week. Therefore, I ask that you take next week off from work (Date to Date). In my absence, my assistant will handle the situation. I appreciate your help and will return to work as soon as my doctor gives me the go-ahead.

With all due respect, it should be noted that since returning from a pretty long trip to attend the meeting with the new client last evening, I have had a headache. I was exhausted as a result, but I preferred to start my tasks immediately.

I, therefore, ask that you approve my leave of absence from (date to date). I’ve finished the work today and have given my assistant the necessary instructions. He will handle the office job while I’m away. I took my medication in the morning and evening, yet I could not go to work. Please approve the following day of leave: (insert the date here), and if further time is required, I will file a new leave application.
