How long does it take you before you realize that you may not be sick enough to skip work but you are sick enough to transfer germs to others at work and should stay home for them, not for yourself?
I really dont feel comfortable when people sitting closer to me are coughing like the crazy but decide to show up at work every single day.
Re: Sickness and office manners
I dont mind sick people coming to work unless they cant walk. If they are coughing i give them a mask.
Re: Sickness and office manners
Sometimes they have no choice, especially in jobs that pay by the hour, and they don't have paid holiday or sick days.

so you being a doctor agree that its not a good citizenship on their part to spread germs.
If there is a ban on second hand smoke, their needs to be a policy about second hand germs.
Re: Sickness and office manners
At my work (many years ago) we had a policy (sort of) about fever and about obvious signs of a cold...so let's say you had a runny nose, red eyes, persistent cough, you were asked to go home.
Re: Sickness and office manners
I seriously dislike sick ppl coming in to work ....
1: you cant give it your all at work, (+/- )impaired judgement
2: potential for spreading it to others (depends on the type of illness)
3: the martyr face/attitude (see im working though i'm sick) is annoying and a distraction.
However, I also seriously seriously dislike ppl abusing sick call ....

Re: Sickness and office manners

Re: Sickness and office manners
In our office, we are actually encouraged to work from home if we're sick with a cold or flu.... they keep saying if you're sick, please work from home, especially if its flu.
