today’s #altTxt #yaddayadda on how bad americans are at #labor #rights:
❝ The whole concept of "sick days" is idolatrous capitalism. When we started work in The Netherlands, we asked HR how many sick days we get. After a brief confused look, the reply - all of them. When you are sick, you stay home. When you are well, you work.
Dutch law (translated) reads "If you own a company in the Netherlands and one of your employees becomes ill, you must go on paying them for a maximum of two years." ❞
