You could do that; however, Sick Pay is different in the US. You are asked if you paid the premiums, your employer paid the premiums, etc.
In some cases, Sick Pay is non-taxable; can be paid by the government, an employer, or a third-party insurance company. Usually reported on a W-2 or a 1099-G, which you don't have.
I would recommend you report as 'Other Reportable Income' with a description and take the Foreign Tax Credit.
Net out is Taxable Income that you paid Foreign Taxes On.
Keep documentation with your tax return.
