- Workers Without Paid Sick Leave Less Likely To Take Time Off For Illness Or Injury Compared To Those With Paid Sick LeaveLinks to an external site. [FAU Library] (DeRigne et al., 2016)
My main area of scholarly research has been on the impact paid sick leave has on the health care outcomes of the US population.
After reading one of my Health Affairs articles, answer the following questions.
- Do you have access to paid sick leave at your current job?
- How did/do you use paid sick days if you have had them in the past? How did the company keep track of your sick days and/or what was the result of taking a sick day?
- If you didn't have paid sick leave and got sick what would you do?
- Did you ever have to use your sick leave during the COVID-19 crisis? Did you have enough?
