So what happens if someone off sick uses Caller ID and doesn't answer any calls from Royal Mail ? Will they use this as an excuse to come round your house to check you are there ? For fecks sake, if I had this norovirus thing and had been chucking-up, the last thing I want is a visit from some numpty guvnor from work :evil/mad
As far as I'm concerned, once I've phoned-in, the next time anyone from RM will hear my voice is when I phone up to tell them I'm returning to work. And not a minute before !!!
