Should a caring employer allow you to stay at home when it snows?

[love_rat]

We hear about staff being used and abused, yet rarely do we hear about the milk of human kindness.

 

I do think that employers could show some humanity by allowing their staff to stay at home if the snow comes down, why?

 

Colds and sniffles

If one member of staff goes to work with a cold, he or she could pass it onto their work colleagues. As it becomes colder and more snowier, people are more likely to suffer a cold and as such infect his/her workmates and causing mass infections

 

Treating staff with fairness

Staff work better when they are treat with dignity and respect. If staff can stay at home by the fire when it snows, then it engenders goodwill from that member of staff. Only nasty employers would expect staff to go into work when it snows.

 

Health and safety, trips and falls

When the snow comes down, the pavement can become very slippy. Not only can this cause an injury to a member of staff, the resulting accident would cause a member of staff to be off work potentially for a few months. better to avoid this problem by allowing staff to stay at home.

 

Also, not to mention the mental humiliation should a member of staff fall on the ice, the resulting embarrasment could result in that member of staff needing councelling and time off work dealing with stress and anguish.

Yes, widespread infection could be the result

we have a contingency plan already in place for when the bad weather comes

 

those who live too far will not be expected to put their well being into jeapordy to get into work

those who live nearer or can walk will keep the cogs turning

 

hopefully it wont come to that...but best to be prepared
