There is much more to life than work. We all have families, friends, and a beautiful world to enjoy. We need more time off to enjoy it.

Idk how it works in Germany, but here only the first 3 days of sick leave are paid by the employer, after that it’s the national welfare agency that pays.
Three days? Its pretty hard to recover from a broken back in three days. Or childbirth. Or the flu for that mattet
You misunderstand, you take as many as you need (there’s a limit in theory but that’s… Complicated), it’s just that after 3 days you are paid by the welfare agency, not your employer. For you it’s the same, you still get your usual paycheck and your employer wires you the money, but they are reimbursed.
It’s an answer to the frequent criticism “but if you stay in sick leave for a long time it’s damaging to your employer!”
That’s the MOST bullshit
You get 6 weeks full pay from your employer and after that you get 70% pay from your health insurance for up to 72 weeks.
And if I remember correctly, burnout is considered a valid use of sick leave.
