So the first time an employee is sick after a working day, then a column with 'First_sick'.

Hi @Tinus1905 , 
You can try using:- =
if [Sick] = 1 and ([Employee] <> #"Shifted Row"[Employee] or #"Shifted Row"[Sick] = 0) then [Hours] else null

and for Sick hours:-

= if [First_sick] <> null then [First_sick] else null
and for working hours.
= if [First_sick] = null then [Hours] else null
This should give you the appropriate columns.
Thank you

@grazitti_sapna when I use if [Sick] = 1 and ([Employee] <> #"Shifted Row"[Employee] or #"Shifted Row"[Sick] = 0) then [Hours] else null in a custom column, I get the same results as column "Hours". 

The result must be:
