Post COVID I’ve found companies and bosses much more accepting of taking a day off to be sick and much less accepting of coming to the office ill.
Making people come into a packed office causes illness to spread more quickly than when everyone works from home.
In other shocking news, the sky is blue.
Of course public servants are going to take more sick days when they’re forced back in the office. When I could work from home while sick I was usually happy to work through illness. Now I choose stay home without working instead. Hooray for productivity!
Good.
I took a break from my usual job and worked from home for 10 months. Literally **zero** illness the entire time.
During WFH, people would work while sick. Being required to be in the office 3 days a week, no flexibility, people use sick days instead of going into the office and sharing their germs. This is exactly what Treasury Board wanted.
This is not surprising and a near from now it will result in a reevaluation of WFH when call out rates were probably much lower. People have shifted and now demand work life balance. They will take all family responsibly days and sick days available. Note that in a lot of public service jobs, when your kids are sick or have an appointment that’s considered an acceptable reason to take a sick day.
I am entitled to my entitlements.
I will not apologize for prioritizing my health above a company that will replace me the day after I’m gone.
If I have sick leave credits and I feel unwell, I will absolutely use those credits regardless of if I am a public servant or not.
It’s almost like we don’t mandate enough sick days. This country has been brainwashed into prioritizing productivity above all else while simultaneously never getting the fruits of said productivity because we vote in conservative and liberal governments.
People were told to take illnesses seriously and to stay home. Now that people are doing that, there shouldn’t be complaints.
