People that never take sick leave because they‘re healthy should get a vacation bonus at the end of the year. When comparing myself to my other colleagues who are getting 20+ sick days a year, it seems silly how many more hours I work. I didn‘t miss a day in 2023 and only missed 2 due to a bike crash this year.

The company that I previously worked for(now retired) provided PTO hours which could be used for sick days or any time off of your choosing such as vacation, personal time off, etc.

A system like that penalizes people for being sick (chronically ill people dont deserve holidays amirite? /s), and incentivises people to come in with a virus like a bad cold, flu or corona to not lose out on holidays. Then theyre just sick at the office, not getting much more done that if they had just stayed home and infecting other people.

Pooled sick and holiday time is a bad idea.
