As same sex marriage is legalised in more states in America, what implications does the US Supreme Court Ruling have for the same sex marriage debate in Australia?
A. No, you can only use an administrative leave day, personal holiday or vacation day. Sick time with pay is defined as a necessary period of absence because of illness or exposure to contagious disease.

Some employers lump together vacation, personal days, and sick leave into what is called paid time off which gives employees a certain amount of leave time to use for any reason. In addition to sick leave, some employers offer disability leave to employees who miss weeks or months of work for medical reasons.
