Is your employer allowed to pay you in sick days?

So a friend of mine recently called into work and used a sick day. Upon arriving the next day they said to him that because he missed the day and it affected their work schedule that they will need him to stay an extra 1.5hrs for the next 3 days to catch them back up. What doesn't make sense to me is that instead of paying him the time and letting him recoup the money on this cheque that my friend lost, they are giving him half a day of sick days back. Is this even legal to do? (I'm in Canada btw)
