Unlimited Sick Days: Denmark’s Dream Policy or Workplace Dilemma? LWID S3E28 (replay)

from Last Week in Denmark

Send us Fan MailUnlimited sick leave sounds great—until it doesn't. Golda and Narcis—both internationals with a strong connection to Denmark—explore the country’s ongoing debate around expanded parental leave to help parents take care of sick children. From the pressures on dual-income households to the impact on startups and the fairness toward colleagues without kids, this conversation tackles the policy from all sides. It’s a deeply personal yet broadly political topic, especially for internationals navigating parenting without local family support. This conversation originally aired in Season 3, Episode 3, and still feels just as relevant today.Full episode: https://lwidpodcast.buzzsprout.com/2209797/episodes/16586898-culling-wolves-unlimited-parental-sick-days-police-scandal-lwid-s3e3In this episode:Cohosts: Golda - https://www.linkedin.com/in/goldafania/Narcis - https://www.linkedin.com/in/narcisgmatache/Podcast Manager:Stephanie - https://www.linkedin.com/in/dstephfuccio/Audio Editor: Cecilia - https://www.linkedin.com/in/ceciliagfoster/👀 LWID Substack: English -Romanian - Polish - Spanish - Turkish - Italian - German - Hungarian - Ukrainian🛍️ LWID merchandise:  https://last-week-in-denmark.tpopsite.com/shop❓ Email:[email protected]: https://www.instagram.com/last_week_in_denmark/ https://www.facebook.com/lastweekindenmark https://www.linkedin.com/company/lastweekindenmark https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC74z1nBOfol1EiPxHPHiHnwwebsite: https://lwid.dk/ 🎵 Music,Jack Leatherbarrow @ Wizmedia: https://wiz-media.co.uk/
