Paid sick days

There are 12 states pushing for companies to provide paid sick days for employees that work over 30 hrs a week. There are about 46 million workers who have no sick time. They feel one of the benefits of companies having to pay sick time it will keep work areas safer. They will not want to pay up for someones leave if they could have made a couple of changes to improve safety. Barack Obama supports new legislation. If new legislation passes it will give workers 7 paid sick days a year. Of course some companies are not happy. It will take a cut out the revenue and they will have to start making cuts in other areas like in employees benefits. Companies would like some form of proof for paid sick time because it will get abused. I feel it is worth the hype! Everyone gets those days sometimes where they just get sick as a dog. With most people living pay check to pay check a paid sick day is great. This is something that can take a little stress off of people.
