How many paid sick days per month does your employer give you?

Question

I get 24 paid sick days a year, or two a month. These days can be banked, so if a doctor determined that I had to stay at home for two weeks, provided I had enough sick days saved, I would be paid for the lost time.

This is a little better than the average in my area, but not by much.

Answer 1

10...

Answer 2

I don't work now, but I did 2 years ago. I didn't get any paid sick days. I had 6 excused days per year, but they weren't paid. The only way to get any money, was to go on temporary disability. Then, if you were off longer than 3 months for an illness or injury, you either had to go on permanent disability or lose your job. If you had a sick kid, forget about it. They were "family" and "employee" oriented - they said. I would hate to see if they weren't. The only reason people stay there is because the pay is great. Just don't get sick, and you're fine.

Answer 3

5 sick days per year and some short term disability (Physician authorized only). I'd say your 24 days is well above the national average.

Answer 4

get as many sick days are needed...with pay. being in the military has its benefits. but only the doc can put a Soldier on quarters. and it's up to him/her how long they feel it will take you to get well. Can't complain...
