the french government wants to fuck up paid sick leave for civil servants.
basically, their plan is :
- you're not paid for the first three days of your sick leave (which is already the case in several admins and it was proved that it doesn't significantly decrease the number of sick leave. it just makes them longer bc people would rather have one really sick leave than several and risk not getting paid for several days, several times)
- you're only paid at 90% for the rest of your sick leave
bite bite scream bite. i'm so fucking tired of governments using us as scapegoats.
what do they want ? people who transmit diseases to their coworkers, so that everyone is sick ? coworkers who will in turn transmit it to their families who will transmit it to their coworkers and classmates etc etc ?
people who are underproductive because they're sick ?
who will develop much more serious illnesses because they didn't get treatment early because they couldn't afford to lose that much money ?
have they thought about WHY people have to take sick days so much??? about exhaustion, about burnout, about la fonction publique having much more fragile people than the private sector because there they get thrown out for not being productive enough? of course not, we're all a bunch of lazy entitled useless workers anyway
bring me back le front populaire et les jours heureux et le NFP. bring me back constructive solutions and something to look forward to instead of this far-right stench that is making us all choke to death slowly but surely
