This benefits company to reduce overall MC, and improve moral & productivity. I remember a department in my company organizes group jogging session every Friday evening. That was before covid happened. People who want to join in can generally get out 30 min earlier than the rest to join the activity. And it's supported by HR so managers would not object to it. Good to have such healthy activity for employees. But some people would think by allowing staff to release earlier from work to join such activity, some staff would take advantage just to get off from work earlier. Like one of my previous company got organise visting to old folk home before on a half working day, and many employees joined because they can no need to work for half a day. But if the activity organise on a sat, response was very poor, cause it is not a working day lo. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

By right you should not be working during on your MC days. But many people would not rest at home for the whole duration MC given, but go back office only rested for 1 day.

I think companies are stricter with blue collar workers to enforce the MC given, as the company would be held doubly liable if a worker on MC is injured at work. For office and WFH workers I think companies still would like them to work while on MC.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most employees chiong for it because we need to fulfill 2 participation events in our KPI for the year. (People who missed the weekday events, have no choice but sign up for the weekend ones) Maybe you can suggest to your HR for this bao jiak strategy. But don't say I say one hor....You can take the credit. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

inlinesix Supersonic January 20, 2021 Share January 20, 2021 I used to organise weekly evening run in the office. We usually start at around 6:30 pm.

Before Covid, my office have badminton team, running team.. Normally employee are allow to leave a bit early for the events. Including blue collar staff. Company had also been sponsor employees 75% for those running events.. like 2XU run, ST run, Standard Chartered marathon etc... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unluckily, something dropped on his head from the cupboard. No serious injury but he had to see a doctor just to be sure. Was a super big issue because he was on MC and the injury happened in the office. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed a big issue if you are on MC, even you stepped out of your house and not resting at home, and something happen to you outside. MC means you must stay at home and rest.

Jellandross Supersonic January 20, 2021 Share January 20, 2021 (edited) All these people who's aware that they're unwell but still go around spreading the love should all be charged in court. Really need to send a strong message to future offenders. Saying that "I'm just self medicating for mild symptoms" is bullshxt since they didn't even self-quarantine at home. Aren't these people committing a more serious offense than those convicted angmos who ignored social distancing? We just need a few more fkers like these to bring on the next wave and throw us back to CB again.
