So any 'industry average' comparison to our 'use it or lose it' is apples to oranges. His words, not mine. I just agreed with him. He was frustrated because he's supposed to be the Sick Leave Police, when in fact, nobody was 'abusing' it, they were just using it.

It's a benefit in our contract, just like vacation.

Do you use all your vacation? Are you a Vacation Abuser?
