      The U.S. is one of the only countries not to offer paid sick leave, a fact that many people believe is more harmful than helpful in the workplace, while opponents argue that it could hurt businesses. https://trib.al/HdLiBTo pic.twitter.com/U9wdZzTG8E

          South African labour laws gives 36 days sick leave over a three year cycle, 4 months maternity leave partially paid, and at least 18 days annual leave per year. Doesnt hurt business

          Flatly untrue. Many CO’s offer unlimited time off. Almost all offer sick leave.

          So? The story says that it is not “offered”. That’s not true.

          Not only do you spread germs to your coworkers and others you are in contact with if you go to work sick but if you stay home without pay you can’t afford your medicine- or dinner.

          Here in the UK most retail workers will only get sick pay after three days sickness.
