[quote=Anonymous]Early the pandemic we wrote a covid clause in our contract. I think we had 12 standard sick days and then the covid clause was 21 days of paid leave for covid related absence (which could also include her being gone to take care of her kids). But in reality, if she had needed more than that we would have kept paying her. However having something in the contract gave us a backstop if at some point things went off the rails. Later, once the vaccines came out we took out the covid clause and decided to play things by ear. It’s a reasonable question OP. I’d tell her to stay home another week no matter what - I wouldn’t want my kids around someone who had covid within 14 days. And if she gets really sick then no issue paying for week 3. After that i think it’d be reasonable to assess when she’s likely to come back or if you can afford to keep paying, especially if you’re also paying a backup sitter. [/quote]
