The Executive Director Of National Sickie Day Wants You To Chuck A Sickie Tomorrow!

Executive Director of National Sickie Day, Charles Firth joined Matman this morning to talk about the importance of chucking a sickie.

No, this isn't a joke! The Chaser have created a day for this - tomorrow, June 28 to do just that! 

This is their mission:

Study after study has shown having a sickie when you’re sick is good for society. But what if you don’t know whether you’re sick or not?

Politicians, epidemiologists, even your Mum says it: stay at home anyway, just in case you’re sick. It’s too important for society for you to risk going to work and infecting everyone. JUST. IN. CASE. It’s the public health loophole that everyone’s talking about.

You can pledge to chuck a sickie here: https://chaser.com.au/sickie/
