Overseas Hospitalization Leave

I wish to find out if companies recognise overseas hospitalisation leave
if no, what is the rationale ?

if yes :
 government or private hospital ?
 what is the rationale ?
 what industry are you from ?
 what are your T&C to recognise overseas doctor

It depends on each company’s policy whether to recognize overseas hospitalization leave.

Generally, employer will not recognize as based on the Employment Act, employee shall be entitled to medical leave if it is certified by the company's doctor, or by a government doctor (including doctors from approved public medical institutions). The approved public medical institutions are Singapore based.
