Employer only pays first week or two here, after that it's the government till you hit 6 months. Companies would go bankrupt left and right if they had to pay 6 weeks lol. My ex takes the maximum sick leave she can while still getting paid, about half a year of sick leave every year. Essentially, she gets a job, works for a week or 2, then breaks a wrist on purpose or gets a migraine. But it's not always the whole six months straight, sometimes it's a month and then she works for another week. That would reset the employer's duty to pay her sick leave and puts the company in an awkward position if it's a smaller one.
