> The Changing Landscape Of Taking Time Off From
Work, And Getting Paid Too
While many
employees can call in sick and still get paid, even if a family member is ill
and needs care, that's not true for all workers. According to AccountingWeb,
about 43 percent of Americans get a smaller paycheck if they can't go to work
due to illness.

A four-year college degree, seen for generations as a ticket to a better
life, is no longer enough to guarantee a steadily rising paycheck.
