Missing shifts during WIL internship

I missed some shifts during my WIL internship because I was sick/there was a public holiday. What should I do and do I need to make up the time?

You must notify the host organisation as soon as possible if you will not be able to attend a placement due to illness or other unforeseen circumstances. You must make up any missed hours to meet the requirements for the WIL unit by the end of the teaching period you are enrolled in. If you need to complete hours outside of the teaching period, contact your Unit Coordinator as soon as you can to discuss an extension.

NOTE: makeup shifts and rostered days off are all issued at the discretion of the host organisation.
