    Try that again without ad hominen attacks.

    These are obligations. Period. You want to do business in Australia, you play by these rules.

    There are actually no limits whatsoever on how many times you can call in sick. None. While your comment on overwork and unscrupulous employers is correct, there were absolutely no ‘unscrupulous employees’ abusing the system to the point where it had to be capped, literally you called in sick, you got no pay, or if your workplace paid you, that was a private arrangement. Mandated paid sick leave was written into its very existence as a limited number of days right from the start - and businesses decided to play to the legal bare minimum.

    Those ten days are factored into your annual wages btw. So yes, they do belong to me.

    Also: it’s incredibly hilarious that you’re trying to be denigratory going on about a ‘sense of entitlement’ when we’re discussing literal, legally defined entitlements.

      Falsely claiming that what I said was ad hominem is itself ad hominem.

      You keep doing you mate, I’m sure chucking sickies is the least annoying thing you do at work.
