I think it really depends of the culture of the company.



Often, organisations have an email box that many managers have access to to see who will be absent from office on that day, with someone sending an email to everyone with the list of absentees for the day.



In some other companies, if you need to be replaced for the day for example, it would be better to call in sick and make sure that the person who can replace you knows that they have to do so.

    If you are sick right now, I recommend sending an e-mail to your boss, telling them your are sick and will be off work today. Provide your phone number in the e-mail and say they can call you if they need to get hold of you urgently.



    When you are back at work, if you are unsure, talk to your boss and ask them if you handled it ok and, if not, what they would like you to do next time you are sick. If your boss is not happy with the way you handled it, then they will probably just discuss it with you anyway about what to do next time.
