    The whole reason sick days are a thing is that giving employees paid sick time costs you less when they don’t come in and make other employees sick.

    This only applies to infectious disease

      Or a really bad day. Like unbearable pain, or a massive head ache. It’s better if people take the time off and recover because they work better and make fewer mistakes. Nothing sucks more then to redo work.

        I was talking about the fact that pain is not contagious … Of course pain is a valid reason to stay at home!

        My reasoning was that the risk of spreading the disease can’t be the only reason for companies to let you not go to work because it only applies to infectious diseases!

        I think the majority of people misunderstood my comment
