Question
Hello, A person working in a workplace has a certain number of annual vacation days (let's say 20) and a certain number of annual sick days (let's say 15). The vacation can be taken at will. Regarding sick days, which are of course intended for when the person is ill, can a person take a sick day if he feels that his wife needs him, or if his emotional state is a bit low and he needs a day without work?
Answer
Hello
When a person himself does not feel well, he can take a sick day.
However, when his wife does not feel well, this does not pertain to his sick days.
