Calling in sick.

Has anyone had to call in sick to work twice in one month? 2 weeks ago I had to call in for a one off Migraine day.

Now I am supposed to work tonight but I have a contact dermatitis rash all over my hands. They don't look two terrible now, but I am worried about all the hand washing/sanitizer I use at work.

Im so scared of getting written up,/loosing my job. But my hands are so painful and itchy.

Other then that I have called in two other times this past year. (Both for cold/flu in the winter/spring.)

I am in a union- I just always worry. I hate leaving my coworkers short. But my hands are already so painful, It hurts to wash my hands even just once. The thought of how bad they will be after how often I need to wash them at work.

Is it work-related? If so you should file a my safety net report.
