[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work at an independent school in the area and I know that they will look at sick leave differently in light of COVID. I can't imagine them counting days and holding them against any unfortunate employee to contract it. This reflects very poorly on WIS. Am going to mention though, I don't think you need to worry about sick leave as I think the school year is over.  Take your 2 days of leave now OP.[/quote]

The school year is definitely over. But if I am too ill to teach virtual lessons, I have to find a substitute and take leave, just like usual. It’s not like I get vacation from Wednesday to August, so I need to plan. And given my underlying health issues, I frequently see specialists and can’t always choose appointment times that coincide with my schedule, so there are reasons unrelated to the new virus to be conservative with leave.

I wish I could be confident that WIS would be understanding in the future. A week ago, I would have had no doubt. But now I seriously think they would cut my paycheck as a lie in a hallway on a ventilator.  That sounds dramatic, and I hope it is, but their stubborn refusal to listen to public health experts thh hi is week doesn’t give me the confidence I once had. [/quote]
