Some companies operate the statutory sick pay, but I have never worked anywhere that did. The sick leave allowance that my company offers is generous and rises with length of service. We have a certain length of time at full pay followed by a certain period at half-pay.
I take little sick leave - four days in three years - and only if it is serious. We do have employees who "always" seem to be off sick. I am rather suspicious of lots of odd sick days, especially Fridays and Mondays. However, i think people should take sick leave if they need it and a lot depends upon the environment in which they work. I spent many years in health care, and we were required to take sick leave if we had so much as a cold because of the risk to patients.
