#sickleave

A new person that was hired about 19 years old, I don't expect her to know better. Said she was sick and came in because the, the new bright-minded ASM. Gave her a guilt trip about. Calling out in the future of her career at lowes. And then started asking her. Detailed questions about her medical condition. And giving advice. I was just totally. Like, I couldn't believe what I heard. I believe her a hundred percent. She's too d-mb to lie.

Does anyone know if we get the full 2027 sick days if we are leaving earlier in the year on VSP?

…for illness. Lots of coughing in the office. Used to be able to WFH due to illness. What’s the current guidance on this? Will I get pinged if I WFH because I’m coughing a lot, yet still able to work?

Does anyone else deal with inconsistent RTO expectations within their team?

For example, some employees are expected to be in the office from 9 to 5 every day, while others regularly use 2–3 hours of sick leave each week to avoid meeting the full in-office requirement.

Some employees seem to receive exceptions or waivers even after exhausting all their sick leave and PTO although they do not qualify for any sort of accommodation.

I understand that individual circumstances may vary, but shouldn’t RTO standard or expectation be applied consistently across the team?

Curious if anyone else has experienced this and how their management handles it.

When you leave this dump, take all your sick days and then just stop showing up when you start your new job. You can probably get another 2 checks. Take back what they stole from you. #robinhood

There have been a few comments about HR looking at AI usage as part of employee performance. One person also claims HR looked at their sick leave history and treated it as a risk factor. The interesting part is the AI angle. If AI adoption is becoming part of performance management, what exactly is being measured? Logins? Copilot usage? Frequency? Actual output? Is this happening across SAP or only in certain teams? Anyone seeing AI usage show up in performance discussions, manager conversations or HR reviews?

I have been with the bank for a very long time well before COVID. I was just told that if we get sick on our in office day even if that means leaving an hour or two earlier for ONE day, that can put me out of compliance if I already had my WFH day. Before this was ever a thing as long as I had the time I could leave sick whenever and wasn’t penalized for it. What is this company coming to? Why do we preach a work life balance when they sn---h it from us when we have it. Has anyone heard similar to this? How can we protect ourselves and jobs?? I try and work all my office days beginning of the week but I can’t do my WFH days back to back so it leaves me vulnerable if me or my kids get sick

For the first time since i started i have used my pto and sick time. I have about 32 hrs left fir 2026. What if i need and extra day or two? Do i go in the red and it is deducted when new time is alloted in the new year or will it just not accept my time off request? My requests get automatically approved. I guess my manager has it setup thst way if that is possible. Not sure about that, so not sure if it will auto approve and balance in the new year or deduct.

If I am sick or take PTO one day a week, do I still come in three days or are two days ok?

Has anyone heard anything about flex days l?. My rms told me we get 2-3 per year along with your PTO and 5 paid sick days . Has anyone ever used them ? Do we loose those Flex days if we don’t use them ?

Can we use remaining sick time during the two week notice? Do we get paid out remaining vacation time?

Calling out sick-will this impact my severance? Particularly on the last day. Note that I am in a state that has sick time laws and anti retaliation laws on the books.

I’m checking the dashboard. I am at 57.4% for some reason.

I am in compliance every other week except one week where I came into office one day, had two home days, had used sick leave one day, and had an approved non office work day.

Why would that drop me below 60% average? all are approved days.

Im in FL, we were told from our management today we are all required to work overtime to offset the cost of VACN/Sick leave. This happening to anyone else?

USE ALL OF YOUR PTO AND SICK TIME WHILE YOU CAN!

Unfortunately, I live in a "use it or lose it" state. I have 120 hours of sick time and 66 hours of PTO that I need to use within the next two weeks. To make matters worse, my PL said we're not allowed to request time off during the first and last weeks of August and the beginning of September because those weeks are blocked by the company. This literally only leaves the week of 8/10 & 8/17 to use it and with sick time, i would need a drs note for anything more than 3 days smh...

It really su-ks. That's a lot of earned time—and a lot of money—I may end up leaving on the table.

Does Centene payout sick time and PTO when you resign, Or just the PTO? I don’t think I’m going to wait on the VSP or see if I’m impacted by the layouts.

We used to have a sick leave policy where you could take a half day sick leave or up to two days sick leave without a doctor's note. This is being changed so every half day or full day of sick leave needs a doctor's note. If there is no note, the leave would be considered as being out of office without permission and can cause suspension. This will come into effect from August or September.

SAP lobbied the current government to pass this resolution. How is the sick leave policy in your country?

Woke up sick today. Would like to get some stuff done but definitely shouldn't go in and spread it around.

The flu usually takes 3–5 days to recover—but how can I manage a four-day in office while I’m still sick? Taking 4 days off doesn’t make sense.

My last day is today but I didn’t receive my last paycheck that comes with the PTO/ sick days. Does that mean it’s coming in on Thursday?

Infecting healthy people, meaning more people will have to ask for PTO to recover and less and less people will be available to do the job. Well done corporate! Going back to square 1. Great leadership, very smart!

Due to the new Formula, you will have to come in extra days if you have Vacation and Sick time if you want to hit the 60%.

Apparently, a family member having a medical emergency that requires someone to be present isn't a valid reason for a remote work exception! I learned my lesson, I'll just call off sick instead of giving a damn about this sc-mmy org.

Rumors are that PTO and SICK time are getting merged into one pile with a max of 160 hours. Go over 160 and expect a call from management explaining why you are taking more hours than approved. What a demoralizing situation...

I'm tired of working here anyway.

When will the perfect attendance payout take place ? Its usually sometime in march earn a weeks pay for no sick time yeah its a thing

I just can't get myself to do it even when I know I desperately need it.

This week as I am hearing it’s going to be bad. Might as well use some sick time

What is the new sick time policy going into effect in 2026?

Just in time for Christmas and Hannukah, this wonderful company is cutting hours for agents in one of It major lines of business. I have children who won't get much this year. And these je-ks won't let us use our accumulare sick leave or vacation to cover for it. But the billionaire founder/CEO probably will have a wonderful holiday season.

I get it. We all have an “in office goal”. The rest of us want to stay healthy. Work with your manager if it means you aren’t going to hit your RTO numbers. It is disrespectful to disregard others and expose us to your germs for a swipe.

How does WF get away with these practices of reducing PTO hours for usage of sick time?

In NYC, the following law applies: “NYC's sick leave law, the Earned Safe and Sick Time Act (ESSTA), requires employers to provide paid time off for various reasons, including personal or family illness, medical appointments, and absences due to public health emergencies or domestic violence. The amount of paid leave depends on employer size, with employers with 100+ employees providing up to 56 hours annually.”

However, WF’s own policy states: “If you’re a pto eligible employee, you don’t receive paid sick time in addition to your paid time off allowance. Instead your pto can be used for reasons covered under the sick time law to provide pay and job protection. Using sick time in workday decreases your pto balance by reducing those requested hours from your monthly pto accrual.”

Isn’t this illegal?

My manager informed us that you will be penalized for taking PTO halfway through the day and leaving early since it will count as a day in office where you spent less than 8 hours.

This company really needs to get its act together and send out official information about this tracking. Nobody knows what the he-l is going on

For people who track this stuff i predict sick time will double or triple. If I have a sick kid I have to pick up and leave the office I’ll just use four hours of sick time. And when I log off I will be done for the day. I’m not going to sit in an office for 5 hours and not have it count as a day back. And if I’m not feeling great instead of working from home I’ll use sick time. I bet lots of people will do the same.

What all things should I do. Also do sick leaves get paid in Australia
