Retroactive reimbursement for sick days.

[wolfpup]

My policy is for a month... sick days dont get reimbursed. I do my best to find alternate care for them, but it is unlikely that there will be a ton of sick days on my part that require me to close so if there is... sorry... still owe the month. My husband was sick as well and we ended up in the hospital and I was closed for 2 days as well... it is part of having your child in a daycare... if they were sick we would still expect to be paid. I wouldnt reimburse but thats just me! It is a monthly fee, not daily for me. I take 2 weeks in the summer and they still pay full price.

Interesting. I work the same way for holiday days, but provide myself six sick days a year. If I am not sick though I do not use them. If a member of my family is sick, or I have a day for court or something, I don't use it for that. I have never thought about having just the monthly fee regardless of sick days. I often feel upset when children are on the cusp of being sick, you know that point where it is iffy that they are here and I get sick from them. Or my favorite is when they don't at all look sick when they come and start vomiting with diarrhea in the afternoon. Cleaning all of that up is greatly increases the chances of being sick, more than just being around someone who is sick. I still work when I am feeling poorly just not if I am chained to the toiled bowl. Does anyone else not reimburse for sick days? I do for any days over six.
