Unions should be coming for this one
This is the kind of stuff Ford used to do to workers back in the 1920s. Are we really going back to that?? I’d rather burn down all the factories than live in that kind of world again.
When managers have time to do house visits, they certainly have nothing better to do and add no value to the company. I would fire them immediately.
You’re welcome, Elon.
>The move by Elon Musk’s US-headquartered carmaker has sparked outrage at the trade union IG Metall
It will be fun, IG Metall is the largest union in Germany.
Musk really doesn’t seem to get it. Don’t fuck with unions. Ever. You will lose.
Dont you have to get a doctors approval for sick leave?
Weird, checking on sick employees by employers is actually encouraged by [ZUS in Poland](https://www.zus.pl/firmy/pozostale/kontrola-prawidlowosci-wykorzystywania-zwolnien-lekarskich-wykonywana-przez-pracodawcow)…
“who have continued to be paid while being on sick leave over the past nine months.”
I woud like attention from my employer when I’ve been sick for some time. Otherwise I would feel “not needed”.
But hey … I’m in the Netherlands. 10-20 years ago the Netherlands rules changes: an employer must pay attention to a sick employee, and there must be a plan made together.
Ah, there it is: employee and employer together must make a re-integration plan within 8 weeks.

I could be wrong, but even in Germany it is uncommon to be continuously sick for nine months and still being employed. I always thought the employer only had to pay for the first 6 weeks.
But I am not familiar with the matter. The cleaning lady in our office appeared two times within three months (instead of the scheduled 24 times) and was constantly sick. We hired a cleaning company instead and terminated the position with 3 month notice. She immediately send another sick notice for another six weeks.
I don’t get it. In Poland if your doctor won’t tell you to specifically stay at home you can go wherever you want. Obviously going for a foreign vacation won’t be allowed but it’s not like you can’t go to a cinema or take a walk to the beach if you are on a sick leave because you have broken arm or whatever that’s not contagious. Tesla couldn’t do shit here.
Weird, in my country it’s actually the state who does those visits and it’s all legal
