A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Oh no, do you feel unwell? Do you need to take paid personal leave from work to visit a free doctor?

This is normal in civilized countries.

*it's not free.

i pay (on top of my tax deductions) about monthly 150eur for health insurance, and on top of that a yearly 384 eur "eigen risico" (own risk). still better than the US, but free it is not.

If you are unable to afford to pay those additional costs, are you unable to access Healthcare?
