People get sick. It's a fact of life. Many people also cannot afford to miss any time from work, which means people are working while they are sick even though they should be resting. This not only impedes the recovery process, it potentially exposes coworkers and customers to contagious diseases and infections.
We are asking for two calendar weeks of paid sick time as a right for all workers to enjoy. This not only allows for individuals to have a speedier and more full recovery, it helps keep coworkers healthy by not exposing them to illnesses.
