[quote=Anonymous][quote]If you want to encourage her to stay home when sick, I think not paying her is not the way to do it. If she showed up to work as sick as you say, she obviously can't afford to go without pay. If you both make her stay home and not pay her, that doesn't really seem fair to me. [/quote] No way. The nanny is gaming the situation here. She knows that she is not able to work but wants additional PTO. She comes in expecting her employer to send her home and pay her. Guaranteed hours is not just about paying the nanny if she shows up, its paying a nanny of she is ABLE to work. Significant illness means that she can not perform her job expectations. In addition, when the nanny asked for an extra third week of paid vacation (after already getting several extra weeks through guaranteed hours) she agreed that any sick time would be unpaid. The employer is completely in the right for sending her home and having this be an unpaid sick day. [/quote]
