1) The notion workers take advantage of #PaidSickDays is a lie told by Big Business lobbyists. In reality: Evidence from jurisdictions with legislated paid sick leave shows workers rarely abuse their paid sick days. @mattgallowaycbc #15andFairness #ONpoli #coronavirus
2) In fact, workers with between 5 and 9 days of #PaidSickDays tend to take fewer days than those to which they are entitled. Research shows that the typical worker used only 3 and fully 25% of workers used ZERO paid sick days. #15andFairness #ONPoli #coronavirus
3) The same research showed that parents with #PaidSickDays were more than 20% LESS likely to send their sick child to school than parents who did not have access to paid sick days. #15andFairness #ONPoli #coronavirus
4) Workers with low wages and precarious employment go to work sick, rather than forgo income. Where paid sick days exist but are inadequate, workers might use what's available, then go back to work still sick when the paid days run out. This is not abuse, this is reality.
