Can an employer ask to see test results?

I get the same when people ask to finish early for a doctor's appointment. When I ask to see the appointment text/card you end up with a lot of red faces when in reality they are just using it as an excuse to get out early.

Trying creating a company culture where people don't feel the need to make up an excuse if they want to leave a bit early. Maybe this increases worker productivity.

I can think of two reasons really.

1) They got COVID, the test was positive, but sick is unpaid and they can't afford to lose the money.

2) They pulled a sicky, and rather than say they got the squits like a normal shirker, they tried being clever and blamed COVID. They never took a test, since they knew they didn't have it, and didn't expect to be asked for proof of the test.

My money is on number 2...

Scumbag companies not trusting their employees! I can't stand it, no need for him to supply this info.

What's the issue with providing it? Seems like a reasonable piece of diligence.

How many times have we gone over this? For this to be believable you need to commit man! You can't just make statements like this and expect people to fall for it, it takes weeks of buildup to gain credibility. I'm so disappointed in you right now

Creating a culture where everything is done and dusted early then yes I would have no problem letting people go early. People using excuses to get out of work is different all together.
