German term or phrase: Drei-Tage-Regelung
Hello, can you please explain what this "Drei-Tage-Regelung" translates to in English in this context?

I have two examples:

„Damit der Steuerberater die Erstattung bei der Kasse beantragen kann, muss er über die Dauer der Arbeitsunfähigkeit informiert werden. Deswegen ist es wichtig, auch bei einer ***Drei-Tage-Regelung*** daran zu denken, den Berater zu informieren, damit dieser sich um die Erstattung kümmern kann“, rät Dr. Robert Mayr, Vorstandsvorsitzender der DATEV.

and

Verletzung der Nachweispflicht bei Arbeitsunfähigkeit
Nun sollte ein Arbeitgeber sich nicht darauf verlassen, dass generell die ***Drei-Tage-Regelung*** Gültigkeit hat und er somit drei Tage ohne eine Arbeitsunfähigkeitsbescheinigung krank sein darf: der Arbeitnehmer hat das Recht, bereits ab dem ersten Tag der Arbeitsunfähigkeit ein Attest zu verlangen, welches diese bestätigt.

Explanation:
It seems to me that a 3-day-rule would be a 3 day-rule in any context, but let's see if somebody comes up with a more contextualized solution...

Three-day sick leave provision


Explanation:
If an absence for illness extends over three consecutive days, the employee must submit a doctor's note to the employer. German law requires that employees be paid 100 percent of their salary or wages by their employer during the first six weeks of sickness. ... The maximum period for payment of this allowance is 78 weeks.
