re: What sort of sicky are you? That's why some companies have set up "Mental Health Days" as well as sick days. Their staff get 5 mental health days a year and that's just so that when they really don't feel like working they can take one of those and their sick days are set aside for when they're really sick. I think it's a good idea.
I've had a few mental health days in my time. Throwing a sickie can be looked at as being wrong but I think sometimes you just need a day off (without dipping into your annual leave). |
