I used to share an office with a contractor in the UK.
Their sickie policy was that you didn't get paid at all for the first four days of sickness, but for periods of five days or longer you got paid the statutory sick pay rate for the entirety of the sick period.
It was to disincentivise the "one day wonder" sickies after a night on the piss or when you couldn't be arsed going to work - but predictably, all it did was guarantee that people would be off for at least five days so they got something out of it.
Absolutely backwards.
I'm a school bus driver, and when a driver quits or retires they get paid for any accrued sick leave. The idea, of course, is that you don't want people pretending to be sick for their last week or two on the job and leaving us with unexpected absences we have to find substitutes for. However, this payoff is $7 less per hour than our regular rate - so of course, everybody that leaves pretends to be sick for their last week or two on the job in order to get their full pay. It's just such a fucking braindead policy.
Reminds me of an old office that changed their policy so that you needed a doctors note for even a single sick day. They thought it would keep people from calling out for a day for headaches. All it did was cause all previous 1 day sicknesses to be extended to 3-5 days because no doctor here writes a note for anything less.
Sounds like extra vacation days to me!
Cobra problem...
