Trade Unions Teach You To Fall Sick

The term Trade Union reminds you of an old institution often indulging in protests to show their dissent about the privatization of PSUs and demanding pay hikes for their employees. Trade Unions in UK have gone one step ahead and have offered tips on how to take sick leave during the Football World Cup. This has sparked off a big debate and has obviously not gone down well with the employers.

Just take a ‘sickie’?

It is quite difficult to prove that someone is not really sick if they have one day off; and most sick policies provide for the employee to self certificate for the first day off. But if you have a few days off which happen to be match days your employer may will notice a pattern to your sickness which might be used as evidence that sickness is not really the issue.
