Is sick time ever paid out? I’ve never been at company where you could bank sick time, maybe the author confused PTO and sick time.

Never worked at a place that gave me PTO and sick time. It's always just been PTO.

At 100% pay.

Then sort term disability, then long term disability . how much and long for each depends on a lot of things (mine is 90% for 12 weeks, then 50%)

Utterly confusing to everyone outside of the US. As if people pick when to be sick.

Nope. Korea is the same way. I got 3 sick days a year. Morocco I get 6 sick days and 4 personal days.
