I think you are framing it incorrectly as discrimination.

If one stretches such an analogy, one could reason that paid sick leave is discriminating against healthy people. Not many people would agree with that one.

As you've stated, a sensible medical policy for everyone would be good. I would imagine that Google has a one.



Absolutely I agree that paid sick leave is discriminating against healthy people. If you're going to pay people to not work, everyone should be equally eligible.
