Create federal law that prohibits corporations from using neg. employment actions against employees who use sick time

Created by B.K. on January 12, 2013

Many large corporations use negative employment actions against employees from using their sick time. Follow the lead of states like California that ban the use of negative actions against employees from being pressured from going to work sick and infecting everyone else with an infectious illness!

The use of reasonable sick time, i.e., 14 work days a year, should not be allowed to used by employers as a "dependability" requirement in determining who is promoted, fired, or use intimidation to dissuade employees from using reasonable sick time.
