No just let them have 6 mths off paidnotanewuser wrote: »A high proportion do.
So. Should those at risk of catching infections be penalised by having their sick pay taken away? Or should sick pay depend on the department you work in?0 -

So if you work for the NHS and get full pay and have cancer you can be sacked too? Wow.
Of course. If you aren't fit for work for any reason you can be sacked (once due process has been followed).

I've never worked for a company that doesn't pay sick pay or private medical insurance. Doesn't mean I've ever taken the p!ss. In fact, I had a private op under GA and was back working (from home) the next day (was offered a 2 week sick note).Trying to be a man is a waste of a woman0 -
