    It’s not even that.

    In an office setting sick days literally help productivity, because metrics and workload should account for employee’s work hours.

    If someone’s on leave for a day, theyre taken out of production numbers.

    If they “tough it out” then production numbers say they should produce a normal days workload.

    You end up looking worse encouraging a work culture where people don’t take days off.

      I don’t agree with measuring productivity that way. Coworker recently had covid, but they still worked from home. Granted, they put in maybe half the hours they would normally. But, boss was good with it as the alternative was zero work done at all. They still got some work done without burning any sick days.
