I was out sick with covid for 3 weeks, about 2-3 months back. I am a part-time salary employee at 25 hours a week, and was paid for all of my time off. This week my employer tells me, 2 months after the fact, that I have to work extra hours for the next few weeks to make up for those hours I was compensated. This is hard for me as I have other commitments and what's supposed to be 25 hours gets spread out to where I end up having to be there 4-5 days a week already. I will more than likely get fired if I don't commit to this.
I am grateful I was paid for the time that I was off ( not that they had a choice ) but I feel like I'm being slightly taken advantage of.
