Yeah. Even if I’m normally a healthy person, I still don’t want my co-workers coming in sick. So it’s a benefit to everybody.
I’m not sure how you could really write a law or mandate that companies let people work from home when they’re contagious but functional. Perhaps some sort of tax benefits, but no mandated law? I know it’s not possible for us, because of the secure nature of our work.
I have to say that I’m not actually all that keen on working from home, or at least it being an expectation. If there’s an *expectation* that people have to work from home, it disturbs the sanctity of staying home and resting so that you can get well again. I can see even tax benefits leading to companies putting pressure on employees to do so.
