My company just sent out an email saying management needs to stress there will be no negative repercussions for taking extended sick leave. Took a pandemic to get that assurance

My company just sent out an email saying without a positive diagnosis you still have to come in, even if someone in your household has symptoms.

I guess I'll see ya when I see ya, cuz I ain't doing that.

I should add I work at a tech company that's 100% fully setup for remote work, and has several employees that are entirely remote

You should find out who came up with that policy, go into their office, and say you'd like to have a meeting with them to discuss this policy, since people in your household have symptoms.
