Medical: Health Care / Insurance
Portuguese term or phrase: Mesário
This term appears on an insurance policy schedule, in a list of "life and well-being" services provided for life events and different types of leave from work.

Unfortunately it doesn't appear in a sentence, but rather as a stand-alone bullet point in a list of life events, such as "death of a family member" etc.

I'm wondering if it actually means "Jury Service" as it seems to have a legal connection and since this is to do with various types of leave, such as compassionate leave, maternity leave etc, it would seem to fit the context.

Many thanks in advance.
