That’s not true. Any time you use protected sick time, you are not required to find your own coverage and you are protected from the absence policy. It’s the managers responsibility and that’s why they are salaried. Once you’ve called out sick and used sick time for 3 consecutive days, then it’s suggested you go on a leave of absence or apply for short term disability benefits.
If you call out sick for work, don’t use protected sick time, and don’t find coverage, then your manager may so be inclined to give you a corrective action.
