    High Court
    Case number
    PA-16-2-02/2022 (Mahkamah Tinggi)

    Appellant satisfied the 48‑hour notification requirement because attendance at the employer's office on 4.5.2020 and submission of medical documentation established continuity of sick leave from 6.4.2020 to 11.5.2020; respondent therefore knew of the sick leave and termination was unjustified. The JTK decision rejecting appellant's claims was set aside and the appeal allowed with costs.
