One-day sick notes on Fridays or Mondays — companies lose out and checks are hard
Some employees are obtaining single-day sick notes on Fridays or Mondays to extend their weekends, causing significant financial and operational losses for employers. The problem is compounded by the fact that doctors can issue a sick note backdated by up to three days, making effective monitoring difficult. Employers can request checks on sick leave validity, but the short duration makes inspections rare in practice.
