A person who becomes incapable of work by reason of illness, injury, or quarantine may receive sickness benefits (EI Act, s. 21). This normally requires that the claimant obtain a medical certificate completed by a doctor or medical practitioner stating the expected duration of incapacity (EI Regulations, s. 40(1)). The claimant must also show that they would have been available to work if they had not fallen ill, gotten injured, or placed in quarantine. The illness, injury, or quarantine must be that of the claimant personally.
