- raverbashing 11y agoWell, to be honest some countries don't have unjustified sick days, you can take unlimited ones, but with a doctor's note, otherwise it's taken out of your pay
- Overtonwindow 11y agoI think a key difference here is paid sick leave versus unpaid sick leave. I think companies should allow more unpaid sick leave, but if we allow unlimited paid sick leave, no one would ever go to work.
- sre_ops 11y agoYeah, because not having people who were supposed to be doing a job because they are holding the seat "warm" totally solves all the problems. I'm sure customers love hearing those excuses.
- bonzini 11y agoIt's almost like that through all of Europe (possibly with a limit like 8 months in the last 12). You need a doctor's note however.
- talsit 11y agoYeah, Japan doesn't have sick days at all, they are called, literally, holidays!
