Sick leave

[mickyc]

None. I don't get paid if I am sick and close. I don't get paid holidays either. I do charge for stats.

I take roughly 10 days off in a year unpaid holiday days. I spread them out throughout the year.

I opted not to have a set number of sick days. Instead I put sick days as unpaid (since they are last minute and stress me out to have to call in sick). I do 3 weeks paid vacation and paid stats though.

I didn't set a number, it tends to be the families that bring the illnesses in. If they don't like us taking sick days they should contain the illnesses in their homes!

I have up to 5 paid personal days in my contract.

"The child provider receives 5 paid days off per year if needed for illness, appointments or family emergencies. Any additional time off will be deducted from the flat rate fee."
