Professorships Department

Illness

Absences due to illness must be reported to the Dean immediately. Additionally, professors who are absent as a result of illness for more than five (5) working days are obliged to submit a medical certificate to the Professorships Department as soon as possible.

If an absence owing to illness lasts for longer than one month, a new medical certificate must be submitted to the Professorships Department at the beginning of each month.

Substitutes

In the case of appointments funded by UZH and third parties, UZH will refund the costs of organizing a substitute to cover absences of one month or more, whereby the respective department or institute must bear 50% of the costs.  The reimbursement must be discussed between the organizational unit concerned and Human Resources. In each case, the Professorships Department will confirm the inability to work on which the reimbursement is based.

Continued Pay

If a professor is unable to work as a result of illness, their previous full salary will continue to be paid. The duration of these continued salary payments is governed by cantonal law.
