13177 Hypersonic April 10, 2013 Share April 10, 2013 When my staff are on MC , normally will tell them to go back and rest. If one is not feeling feel, productivity will reduce and mistakes will increase. This actually make things worst. Beside that, always tell them health is important. One recover fast, one can work better. But the management have to reassure and cultivate the working environment too. If not, one may think that the mgt view this as hard working. We are humans. Even machine will breakdown once in awhile. I know of companies that provide incentives, if no MC is use within a year. That is sending a wrong signal to the employees. So what if one finally got the incentive, but having long-term implications / consequences on one's health. Some people really very fit and healthy and dont have any MC for the whole year, so i guess such incentive is consider additional and extra money to the employee. But i believe even the company has such incentive in place, but there are still many people who take MC for the sake of taking. This type of incentive doesnt really help much.

Jman888 Moderator April 10, 2013 Share April 10, 2013 You mean if no take MC foe whole year and they give $500? $500 very little le, some people one day pay for the whole year even higher than this. for the rank and file staff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
13177 Hypersonic April 10, 2013 Share April 10, 2013 for the rank and file staff. I think it depends on the individual company policy. I know one company offer such incentive across the board, from operators to managers also entitled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the mgt will have manage individual problems. We have ppl taking advantage, but we know who. My HR will talk to them. If that doesn't work, the year end $$$ will be affected. They all knew it. Just have to fair to those who are genuine. Edited April 10, 2013 by HP_Lee Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamesc Hypersonic April 10, 2013 Share April 10, 2013 (edited) That's why many people even abuse the MC system. Cause additional of 14 days of MC plus your own annual leave. These are malingers and its just terrible to see. I would never abuse the MC system. I just don't see the point of staying at home and doing nothing when I can be at work and do nothing, well except surfing MCF.

If the person is doing manual work like operator job, i think they would rather get MC and stay at home doing nothing. If your job is to sit at the dek and using computer, then maybe you would rather be at work?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaylsg Neutral Newbie April 10, 2013 Share April 10, 2013 I just learned... In Taiwan... if sick, go see doctor get MC, deduct 50% pay. If no MC, consider absent from work. Either deduct AL or 100% pay for the day. So, most of them don't take MC unless really cannot get out of bed. We are so so fortunate to be here... Our company cut variable bonus for taking mc more than 5 days in a year. It is Taiwan company. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
