Employee Frustration: The Debate Over Medical Certificates for Sick Days

A recent viral video by TikTok user @undiagnosedanthony has sparked discussion among employees regarding the requirement of medical certificates for sick days. In the video, the user expresses frustration, stating, "What's wild to me, bosses requiring a medical certificate when you're sick." He questions the logic of having to leave home to visit a doctor when feeling unwell, asking, "I was fucking sick, I wasn't going to the doctors. I'm not going anywhere, I'm staying my fucking house." The video highlights a common sentiment among workers who feel that such requirements demonstrate a lack of trust from employers and add unnecessary burden during illness. The user further points out the ease with which such certificates can be forged, suggesting the policy's ineffectiveness.
