Stage 1 query

When they say that you get a stage 1 if you are off either 4 or more times or 14 days or more in a year. When is that year calculated- From the first or last absense? Say you were first off sick in January and reached the maximum days allowed by December and were off sick again in Febuary of the following year would that count as a new year?

The next 12 months is from the second absence.
