In Belgium, doctors to check on employees calling in sick

Calling in sick with a hangover or to enjoy unexpected good weather may soon be more difficult in Belgium — the government has proposed a law which would require employees taking a sick day to stay at home for a medical check-up.

The draft legislation would oblige people to remain at home for a fourhour time slot between 7am and 8pm for a visit from a doctor to confirm their reported ailments. If the person who called in sick was not at home, they could lose their pay for that day, Belgian media reported. The rule change is part of an overhaul of labour laws which are different for blue and white collar workers. At present, people working in manual jobs do not get their first day of sick leave paid.

That clause would be abolished under the new laws, but unions said the proposals were unacceptable. "We can't agree with such a violation of personal privacy," said Jan Vercamst of the union ACLVB.
