Employers Checking Social Media to Catch Employees Faking Sick Days

Employers Checking Social Media to Catch Employees Faking Sick Days

Faking sick? Stay off social media because employers have decided to track down supposed sick employees on social media to see if they’re really sick:

A new Careerbuilder survey found that more than a third of bosses have caught an employee lying about being sick by checking social media.

27 percent of those have been fired; 55 percent only got a talking to.

The study also found that the number of workers who give a fake-sick call has declined from 38 percent to 35 percent over the last year.
