I can definitely see why sickness leave is down. Sometimes if you’re just feeling “a bit off” you don’t feel at all up to getting showered, dressed, and out to sit at a desk all day so would call in sick - but you’re not SICK sick, just a bit run down, and could still happily plonk in the couch with a laptop and get in with a few things. I think I’d have to be properly bedridden to call in sick these days… otherwise I’d just let them know I’m not 100% so they know to expect a slower pace than usual. Then sit on here all day arguing about Meghan Markle and answering the occasional email and Teams message.
…….like most days…….
