Sweden has 14 sick days no questions asked before you need a doctors note. The German way of having to call your doctor for a flu note is a little odd to me. You do loose the first day's pay (the meme is that too many people were off sick when there was a world cup finals or something), and then 80% pay.
- lionkor 3mo agoThis is not accurate. In Germany, you usually only have to get a doctor's note at 2 or 3 days, if youre only sick for a day or two you don't need one. And there's an unlimited number of sick days. As long as you have a doctor's note, you still get paid, up to some ridiculous limit at which you might have to get government support instead.
- jorvi 3mo ago> You do loose the first day's pay Many countries have this system and the usual effect is that the duration people are sick for is magically never less than 2 days. It's dumb policy.
- msh 3mo agoyeah, when denmark switched from loosing first days pay to the first day also being paid sick rates dropped more than enough to pay for it.
