We live in a fast paced society  and people do not want to slow down even when they are sick. In the  quest to meet deadlines and accomplish important tasks

employees often go to

work

 when they are sick not caring about their health or that of others around them. I believe

this

act is wrong and employees should not be allowed to come to

work

when they are sick as

such

sickness

can be highly contagious and the employee will not function efficiently.

Firstly

, a sick

person

 should not come to

work

because their

sickness

might be highly contagious.

For instance

, if  a

person

that has flu comes to the office, he/she can infect someone else as

this

is highly contagious. It is advisable for a sick

person

to stay at home, use his drugs and get better so as not to infect others with his diseases.

Also

person

comes to the office, his condition might worsen and in the quest of accomplishing his task he will create more harm to himself than

as his brain will be disturbed.

Furthermore

, sick people shouldn’t come to

work

as the

sickness

might stay longer. Most times, people fall ill due to stress and lack of rest. So

if a sick

, he might worsen his situation and his

sickness

might stay longer. It is advisable that a sick

person

should be well rested so he can recover quickly and once he is back on his feet, he will be able to function perfectly, all tasks will be accomplished and deadlines met. Some people might say that the sick

ought to come to

tasks

expected of him.

However

, it should be noted that

such

person

 won’t function effectively as he isn’t in his right frame of mind and his brain is muddled.

For instance

work

that he would ordinarily finish in 30 mins will take him maybe 1 hour to complete.

work, but

at a slow pace thereby making him inefficient. In conclusion, people shouldn’t go to

work

when they are sick and alternatives can help perform the required task. Companies should have sick leave as part of their benefits so staff can  take leave when they are indispensable. Companies should ensure that staff that
