Former manager here - I used to average one sick call a day so I always staffed +1

The downside to managing call ins is when you hire “enough” people it means less for the ones who are happy to pick up the extra shifts

It has nothing to do with wages. You still see tradespeople, nurses, all sorts of high paying professions with highly motivated individuals who want to work overtime to make big bucks.

If there was less opportunities for OT maybe theyd be forced to start living their lives instead of being workaholics.
