Sick leave in the U.S. increased 55% in 2023 compared to 2019, according to new data from human resources platform Dayforce, which collected data from more than 1,500 of its clients. … employees younger than 36 are leading the charge, with a 29% leap in the amount of sick leave they took from 2024 compared to 2019.
How does the group leading the charge have a smaller increase than the increase of the aggregate? Was there a decline between ‘23 to ‘24? Am I misinterpreting?
Edit: I suppose it could also indicate that the under 36 demographic could have had a significant growth in proportion.
It depends on when you start counting. Starliner left the ISS 21 days ago, but if you count from the planned end date, it's 106 days overdue. Personally, I would classify having a return vehicle that is considered too risky to operate as being “stranded”.
