Being dependable is one thing. Treating burnout like proof of loyalty is another.

I’m 41 and have worked in the trades for 22 years. There was always guilt tripping, and a bit of disgrace involved around taking a sick day over the last couple years. We have definitely turned a leaf in the industry, especially after Covid I would rather take one day to start feeling better then spend five days sick at work.

Unfortunately, regardless of the sickleave policy, some employers guilt trip the heck out of you for being out sick

Then they put you on the attendance program, ask for documentation over 2 days and make you feel bad for calling in sick but will send you home if you come to work sick can’t win

Agreed! I’m a program director and for so many years the only time I took a sick day was when I was in the hospital. Take the sick day and use your PTO!

If there was an award for most sick days taken at the workplace, I'd probably win it. BUT are my deadlines always met? Yes. Does my job ever become someone else's burden? Absolutely not. Do I step in to fill for others as needed? Absolutely. But, I never hesitate to take time to myself as well.

Thank you stranger. I've been sitting here feeling guilty for having a sick day today. My sciatica is dreadful, to drive would be dangerous and of I tried to WFH today I wouldn't be able to concentrate. I'm going to take tomorrow too to rest my body 🥰
