If the average employee takes 4 sick days and you don’t sick seems like you should get a “well” day.
No but really.
In Australia, we could call that Carer’s Leave; Mental health days are a valid use case (at least at my work).
Edit: Mind you, we are also a country that needed to implement a Public Holiday ahead of the AFL Grand Final (similar to SuperBowl) because a significant portion of the population were taking ‘sick days’! 🤣
Get yourself a boss that respects Mental Health days!
I think we need a doctors note for more than two days
I don’t understand that policy. The only times in the last 4 years that I’ve needed more than 2 days of sick leave was because I had covid, and I think that’s a very common experience. And people with covid should absolutely not be going to the doctors office and exposing themselves to the sick and elderly. If someone has covid, you should be telling them to stay home. We’re currently in the middle of a worldwide pandemic.
When I call my doctor and tell them I have covid, I get a doctor’s note sent to me/my employer automatically without having to expose anyone
