Though, the wait time for a lot of doctors in my province is extremely high.
If you need to see a family doctor, you best book it *months* in advance.
wait time as in having to sit in the waiting room for a long time
oh
If the problem is urgent, you should go to Emergency.
well you dont know when you're going to be sick months in advance haha
When waiting at Emerg, it can take minutes to be seen by a doctor, or up to 10 hours.
It depends on how busy Emerg and Triage are at the time
If you are on an organ transplant waiting list..
Make that months, possibly years.
And there's a high chance you'll die before you get a working organ
huh
what about sick leave
?
That, I don't know shit about
oh okay
Materinity and sick leave vary by province.
Nova Scotia is 10 months at least iirc.
Alberta is only a few months
Etc.
or what do you mean with that
No, I mean, materinity.
oh right
As for sick leave, I can't remember
It isn't much, though
read somewher on reddit that in the US it's like 10 days of sick leave
i mean what if you're sick for 11 days
just go to work while sick
makes no sense
Probably around 15 here because Canada can be a bit easier on you.
hmm
over here i don't think there's a set limit
just need a doctor confirmation when you're sick
that can be annoying if you have a bad cold for example
If it's a serious illness or something that can be lifethreatening, it can be extended.
Bad cold? Lmfao fuck I go to work when I have a bad cold.
well bad cold as in fever
you go to work with high temp?
General thing over here is that, if you're not vomiting or seizing, you gotta work. Of course there are exceptions, like heat stroke or heat exhaustion.
Those *require* leave.
