Most people won’t abuse sick leave and if someone does start abusing it they will ultimately be unable to perform their job and need to go on either short or long term disability which will require proof.
Checking every minor issue is utterly dehumanizing and a waste of everyone’s time.
It’s a way for them to semi-legally force you to not take your sick leave, because it’s gonna always be a huge pain to get to your GP (or urgent care in the US, because your GP is booked solid for another two months) and get that doctor’s note.
And those scumbag politicians don’t even try to hide it. Here in Germany the conservative rulers and their minions recently demanded for “doctor’s notice on first day” paired with a ban on notices through phone or video. They did so right after talking about how we “need to work more to secure ‘our’ wealth”. It’s so blatant it hurts.
Of course literally everyone hated that except companies led by soulless, mindless career managers who treat humans as mere annoying resources. And of course right-wingers who don’t care for humans anyway.
Forcing proof for medical leave is such bs.

This is just so depressing. Like it’s just such a fuck you to people.
