There was an information session on H1N1 at my hospital yesterday. On the one hand we are being told to stay home if we get sick (common sense) but Health and Safety has told us they aren't relaxing the rule that the first 5 days off are unpaid unless we have sick days (9 per year) left. Most of us just can't afford to stay home for free.
the CYA policies always did piss me off too, Zeph [>:]
Look I understand the whole don't infect others policy....I get that I really do. It just seems to me that if they want us to be ABLE to stay home they should offer the incentive of paid days off.
it won't happen. I think in a lot of places they want you there anyway (when were you at work, hacking and sneezing, and had a supervisor approach you and say "Zeph...you are sick. Go home."? Yeah right....you had to approach them to leave, then they have the balls to look surprised.). It is a CYA for them. Should you infect a patient and they complain to the Suits, they can pull out the memo, sadly shake their heads, and place the blame squarely on you.
Luckily my office is away from the patients (I do all the correspondence for the dept) so all I do is not deliver the stuff I've done. Oh and here's another good eyeroller: "heart sounds present". Oh goody your patient is alive [8|]
