Nope. If you’re feeling sick over here you have to get a doctor’s note (bit childish imo). But he gave me one for a week off and my place of work wouldn’t be able to do anything against it (not that they would, they are fine).
Better than nothing. Childish, I agree. Good that you have a reasonably supportive employer, too. There are too many petty tyrants who feel personally attacked when you can’t work due to illness:
“if you’re well enough to go to the doctor’s you’re well enough to go to work”
okay mate but this is contagious and fatal and have you heard of this technology called a telephone what means I didn’t have to physically visit a doctor to cough in her face about my contagious and fatal virus
There are a few managers at my place that think like that as well, but I just wave my Union card at them and that’s the end of it
