Fit Note

Fit Note
An alternative form of sick note that details the tasks an unwell worker is deemed capable of.

The BBC reported that “employee ‘fit notes’ are to be brought in as part of [British] government efforts to cut the amount of money lost to the economy from workplace absenteeism.” It seems the aim of fit notes is to encourage people back into work and out of a dependence on sick-pay.
