We have that where I work, I just recently found out. We generally don’t need to give a reason for sick time unless it’s more than two days, but mental health is a valid reason. I think we need a doctors note for more than two days, but I’ve never had to get a note. I don’t generally call in sick more than two days unless I’m very sick. It’s easy enough to just take a few days off if we give a couple days notice and as long as we have enough coverage. I’ve never been told no for a vacation request. It’s nice.
This incentivizes the tenant to worsen any problems so the landlord has to pay.
