#PaidSickLeaveSavesLives #CdnPoli #COVID19 #CdnHealth
Over half of workers don’t have paid sick days.

#COVID19 has exposed precarious work, including lack of paid sick days, as a public health hazard⚠️

This has been devastating on farms, in long-term-care homes, meat processing plants & other workplaces.

Low-income workers are most likely to be denied paid sick days. These are the women, migrants, racialized workers & workers with disabilities in our communities who need the protection of paid sick days most.

#PaidSickLeaveSavesLives and it's needed urgently while we deal with #COVID19, but we need paid #sickdays permanently to protect our health and lives every year. One sick person in an office or classroom quickly passes on illness, putting us all at risk. 1/4 #forjudeforeveryone
Do you know what you're legally entitled to in your region? If your employer has a more generous plan than what's mandated, you may not think about it, but when people in our community are forced to work sick, we're all affected.2/4 #PaidSickDaysSaveLives

This is what illness in the classroom did to my family. Not during a pandemic, but a normal year when ~3500 🇨🇦s die from flu, ~12,200 are hospitalized, and many suffer. It doesn't just happen. Everyone who gets the flu & #COVID19 gets it from someone else.
