Sick days are not “offered” by employers. Sick days are prescribed by the doctors and there is no upper limit. After all, your sickness will not disappear just because it has been N days. That's at last how it is in Poland.
- Autious 4mo agoSweden has 14 sick days no questions asked before you need a doctors note. The German way of having to call your doctor for a flu note is a little odd to me. You do loose the first day's pay (the meme is that too many people were off sick when there was a world cup finals or something), and then 80% pay.
- lionkor 4mo agoThis is not accurate. In Germany, you usually only have to get a doctor's note at 2 or 3 days, if youre only sick for a day or two you don't need one. And there's an unlimited number of sick days. As long as you have a doctor's note, you still get paid, up to some ridiculous limit at which you might have to get government support instead.
- jorvi 4mo ago> You do loose the first day's pay Many countries have this system and the usual effect is that the duration people are sick for is magically never less than 2 days. It's dumb policy.
- msh 4mo agoyeah, when denmark switched from loosing first days pay to the first day also being paid sick rates dropped more than enough to pay for it.
