From the article: Paid Sick Leave – Is it Required by Law?
The New York Times has reported, "At Wal-Mart, when employees miss one or more days because of illness or other reasons, they generally get a demerit point. Once employees obtain four points over a six-month period, they begin receiving warnings that can lead to dismissal."

Should employees be required to report to work when they have the H1N1 flu or other contagious illnesses or face being penalized?

Shouldn't a doctor's note let them off the hook? Should employers be required to pay sick leave?

Go to Wal-mart - go home with flu!

In the DR even Burger King cannot keep burgers in stock -they run out of patties all the time... Who wants patties? .............. Worst Burger King Burgers Of all the major fast food restaurants, Burger King has the unhealthiest options. Several BK hamburgers have more than 60 grams of fat and around 1,000 calories or more. The worst BK burgers are the following: Texas Triple Whopper Sandwich—1,310 calories, 88 grams fat •Triple Whopper Sandwich with cheese—1,250 calories, 84 grams fat •BK Quad Stacker—930 calories, 65 grams fat •A1 Steakhouse XT—970 calories, 61 grams fat The double and single versions of Whoppers are only slightly better, with between 40 and 65 grams of fat and 670 to more than 1,000 calories. Save us from the patties! S.

Now Walmart makes a lot of money in the DR, Grupo Ramos got even more rich and we keep paing the high prices. The items imported from USA cost an arm and a leg
