Can you vote for L4? See what your release says
Much depends on the kind of medical discharge. - all situation in this area should be considered individually, but there are general rules that can aid to measure specified a case - explains labour marketplace expert Mikołaj Zając, president of the advisory company Conferio, quoted by business.interia.pl.
The first doubts can explain the kind of L4 itself. The release contains 1 of 2 indications: "a illness should lie" and "a illness can walk". This defines the scope of possibilities and activity of the patient. For this reason, any decision to leave your place of residence, especially if this first indication is given, should first be consulted by your doctor. This will measure whether participating in the elections will disrupt the treatment process. Leaving home to vote is so not prohibited, but 1 must be aware that in any situations there may be a hazard of problems.
Any action that does not service recovery or that return delays may be considered an abuse by ZUS. - In my experience, ZUS can interpret these cases differently. Therefore, it is crucial to be aware of the possible consequences and prior consultation with the doctor - emphasises Mikołaj Zając.

Sitting on the election committee and sick leave. Will ZUS revoke the witnessing?
It may happen that the individual serving as a associate of the election committee is on sick leave or that dismissal is obtained. Although remuneration is due for these actions, the rules do not treat working in the committee as gainful work. There is so no hazard of failure of sickness benefit. At the same time, if there is simply a hazard of deterioration, ZUS may retreat the benefit. For this reason, besides in this case, the expert recommends consulting a doctor.
