At my job, I'm the one covering every time someone gets ill. People with kids often get it from their kids, who getvit from sick kids sent to school. Vicious cycle.
Sure some will take the piss.

To be claro , I can only speak from my experiences.
A lot of places try to run so lean nowadays, that they don't have "fill-in" people. Add somebody laying out or on vacation and it really messes things up.
If you have insurance (especially with a flex account) the doctor note goes a long way. This day and age, you can basically pay a doctor to write you a note regardless.

I assume the main problem is an employer not being able to tell whether or not someone is sick, or just "calling in sick."

No one will ever tell you that, but that's why I'm here.
It's a good litmus test for the new employee though. If they keep their job, it means they like you.
