Are Online Medical Certificates Legal?
Yes, online medical certificates are legal when issued by a fully registered Australian doctor. Under national workplace laws, employers must accept a valid medical certificate as reasonable evidence for sick or carer’s leave.
When the assessment is conducted properly through a secure telehealth consultation, the certificate holds the same legal standing as one issued in a physical clinic. It must include the doctor’s details, provider number, and date of issue to remain compliant. Choosing a trusted service ensures your certificate is recognised across Australia.
