I have an employee right now in same situation, he's been work from home for almost 4 weeks with about 4 days of actual sick time in between. Someone squawked to HR, they rattled my cage as in Cali it's 3 days bring in a note. I had to ask him to email me a Dr note or have his Dr fax in a note. Such a pain as he is working, has legitimate issues(needs to lose about 100 lbs in reality) but HR is on my butt and trying to keep them off his.
From a managers perspective just get the note it will be easier for everyone.
