The Sick Note

Peter Day looks at illness at work and the implications it could have for us all.

Peter Day takes a close look at something most people hope will never happen to them: illness at work. He looks at a new scheme in Britain to get people back to work more quickly after being off ill and asks what happens elsewhere in the world when workers are sick.
