Super Bowl Monday: A Day of Sick Leave

On the day after the Super Bowl, known as Super Sick Monday, a significant number of employees in the US call out sick from work. According to the UKG Workforce Institute, 16.1 million employees were expected to be absent from work, with 10 million already requesting the day off. The trend is not only limited to regular employees, as even NFL scriptwriters take the day off after a compelling TV season finale.
