Wal-Mart's Sick Day Policy

We recently came across this blog post about Wal-Mart's sick day policy at the OSHA Underground Blog and thought it was interesting:

A reader from Walmart told us about her first day orientation....

She watched a video saying "Wal-Mart is the coolest, best place on earth and forget what everyone else says, they're just jealous."

"A sick day, any sick day short of hospitalization is considered an UN-authorized absence at Walmart"

Another video proclaimed "Wal-Mart is better because there are no unions and nobody joins a union anymore and union reps are stupid and how dare they try to recruit you and joining a union is stupid and only stupid people still belong to unions."

WE can imagine the panflu starting at Walmart due to the sick leave policy.
