off sick on strike days

Post by tigercat »

Whats the score on being on sick leave on a strike day. Ive been off for a few months and expect to be signed off again by my GP. Also I was due annual leave last month but was signed off sick. Will I get those holidays back?

you will be counted as being on sick and paid, and yes you should get those days back also

Though there might not be any picket lines if everyone goes to the Postal Gang Bang ......wherever it is held.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.
